Yeni Malatyaspor, which competed in the 2nd League last season and was relegated to the 3rd League for failing to appear for two matches, has also failed to appear for its first two matches in the 3rd League Group 3 this season.
The PFDK declared Yeni Malatyaspor to have lost 3-0 by default after the team did not show up at the scheduled time for the Ejderoğlu Kırşehir Futbol Spor Kulübü vs. Yeni Malatyaspor match, which was supposed to be played on September 12, 2026.
The board decided to relegate Yeni Malatyaspor to a lower league because the same action was repeated for the second time within the same season.
In its decision, the PFDK also ruled that other teams scheduled to face Yeni Malatyaspor from this match date forward will be declared winners by default without the matches being played.
