In the first minutes of the Kocaelispor- Serik Belediyespor match in the TFF 2nd League Red Group, there was a development that upset everyone. In the 6th minute of the match, İsmet Benli, who wanted to protect his goal during the attack developed by Kocaelispor with Cem Ekinci, rose to the ball with İbrahim Demir, the goalkeeper of Serik Belediyespor, and remained on the ground after colliding with his goalkeeper. While the game of the middle referee Ayberk Demirbaş continued, İsmet Benli, who could not get up from the ground, made the first intervention by the goalkeeper İbrahim Demir.
BROUGHT TO HOSPITAL BY AMBULANCE
The goalkeeper, who insistently wanted a medical team for the player lying on the ground, tried to attract the attention of the referees for minutes. About a minute and a half later, fourth referee Önder Turgay Demirbak sent the club’s medical team to the field. Upon the reaction of the fans, the middle referee stopped the game and went to the player lying on the ground. An ambulance was called into the field for the player, whose tongue was stated to be stuck in his throat. After the on-site intervention, İsmet Benli was taken to the hospital by ambulance.
