Duje Strukan from the Croatian Football Federation will manage the last match that Fenerbahçe will play in the group stage with Dynamo Kyiv in the UEFA Europa League.
Ivan Bebek, who was involved in scandals, was appointed as the 4th referee of the fight.
IS IVAN BABY INNOVATIVE?
The Croatian referee, who ruled Fenerbahçe’s match against Braga in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Europa League in 2016 and caused the yellow-dark blue team to be eliminated from the cup, was mentioned with scandals.
After this date, Ivan Bebek’s refereeing life became difficult. UEFA dropped the referee, who was in the elite category, to the 1st category in the 2017 list. He was deprived of the big games. Only in the Europa League, competitions with low difficulty levels were given.
After that year, Bebek only managed one Champions League match in the 2019-2020 season. The Champions League qualifying match between Dynamo Kyiv and Bruges ended 3-3, with 2 red cards. Ivan Bebek took part in only 1 Europa League match this season. Leicester City lost 1-0 to Legia Warsaw in the match.
ATTACKED
On the other hand, Bebek, who received reactions with his wrong management in the Hajduk Split – Lokomotiva Zagreb fight played in the Croatian League in 2019, was attacked in front of a nightclub. The event referee was first verbally abused and then physically attacked by a group of fans. The Croatian Football Federation condemned the incident and called on state bodies to immediately find the attackers.
When the audio recording of Ivan Bebek emerged after the Hajduk Split and Lokomotiva Zagreb match on September 26, 2021, the Croatian Football Federation initiated an investigation by asking for Ivan Bebek’s defense. The baby was suspended for a while.
