In the 29th week of the Trendyol Süper Lig, Fenerbahçe hosted Pendikspor, and the match ended with a 4-1 victory for Fenerbahçe.
After the match, Fenerbahçe executive Selahattin Baki made statements.
Selahattin Baki stated, “The referee did not start with good intentions. Everyone knows that. For 70 minutes, he allowed Pendikspor’s on-field antics, which would require a thousand witnesses to call it football, an unclear game with various tensions and provocations. Having a referee with such a performance in the Süper Lig is a betrayal to Turkish football. We got through today with high character and determination. Let’s see what the Disciplinary Committee will conjure up in the Trabzonspor match. I thank our supporters who did not withhold their support from the team. Our president Ali Koç will make statements on Wednesday. I recommend everyone following Turkish sports to pay close attention. Those who claimed there is a coalition against us revealed today that they are actually part of the coalition.”
