Fenerbahçe Fan Denied Entry to the Stadium Due to ‘Atatürk Silhouette’
The anticipated Super Cup match between Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray, scheduled to take place at Al-Awwal Park (King Saud University) Stadium in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, at 20:45, did not kick off following a crisis arising from Atatürk banners and Atatürk-themed t-shirts.
Spectators wanting to watch the match in the stadium claimed they were not allowed into the stadium, citing a Fenerbahçe fan in particular who was reportedly denied entry due to wearing a jersey with an Atatürk silhouette.
The fan, expressing a desire to enter the stadium wearing Fenerbahçe’s 100th-anniversary jersey, alleged that they were rejected from entering the stadium because of the Atatürk silhouette on the jersey.
Describing the incident, the fan stated, “Just because there’s Atatürk on the jersey, they didn’t let us in; they sent us back.”
