Galatasaray Vice President Metin Öztürk made a statement after the Super League 21st week match, in which they defeated Tümosan Konyaspor 1-0 and 2 goals were canceled, and criticized the foreign VAR management.
Reacting to the VAR management, Öztürk said:
“If Abdülkerim Bardakcı is actively offside according to the VAR referee, wasn’t the goal we conceded in the Hatayspor match also like that? I request that this should be the standard of the game. Our clear goal was not given. We see that the foreign VAR came. The foreign VAR did not see it. Foreigners can also be a bit unfamiliar with this matter. Tomorrow, the 2nd match will be over. Our next opponent has a match, Göztepe is a very good team, they played a very good match with us and Beşiktaş, they have European dreams, it will be a very good match tomorrow. “I’m sure we will watch. I hope the referee of the match will not repeat the mistake he made in the match where we crushed Fenerbahçe in their stadium. If the referee had not made that mistake, the match would have gone 7 to 8. We are looking ahead. Galatasaray will be champions again at the end of the season.”
