Former referee Deniz Çoban, who is a referee commentator for BeIN Sports, made statements at the broadcasting organization following the Galatasaray-Beşiktaş derby. Deniz Çoban made remarks that will be widely discussed, stating that the derby could be replayed.



"THE REFEREE MADE A MISTAKE"



Deniz Çoban pointed out that the referee made a mistake during the player substitution, saying, "Beşiktaş made a player substitution. The referee stopped the game for Osimhen's injury. The game started with a referee throw-in. It was in the game for about 10 seconds, and a warning came from the sidelines. A warning came that the Beşiktaş team would make a player substitution. The referee stopped the game. A substitution cannot stop the game while it is ongoing. The referee made a mistake by stopping the game."



"BEŞIKTAŞ STOPPED THE GAME 4 TIMES"



Deniz Çoban stated that Beşiktaş could stop the game a maximum of 3 times for player substitutions, but due to the mistake, it stopped 4 times, saying, "Although Beşiktaş had prepared for two player substitutions, after the first one was made, the referee may have restarted the game. This is an important mistake for the referee. Why is this important? According to the rules and regulations of football, each team can make 5 substitutions and can stop the game 3 times for substitutions as long as they do not take a halftime break. The game was stopped twice here. Beşiktaş stopped the game twice more for substitutions. Although it could have stopped a maximum of 3 times as stated in the regulations, Beşiktaş stopped it 4 times for substitutions. Galatasaray made a substitution while Beşiktaş did as well. It doesn't matter. Both teams are considered to have made substitutions separately."



"MHK WILL REQUEST AN ADDITIONAL REPORT FROM THE REFEREE"



Continuing his remarks, Deniz Çoban said, "If there is an objection regarding this situation, it will be made to the TFF. As a result of the objection, the TFF will request an opinion from the MHK. They will ask for an explanation. The MHK will also request an additional report from the referee. The referee will provide the MHK with an additional report on how this incident occurred and why the referee implemented it this way. The MHK will inform the TFF regarding this matter."



"TFF MAY REPLAY THE DERBY"



Deniz Çoban emphasized the possibility of the derby being replayed, stating, "Accordingly, the TFF can validate the score, can restart the game from the moment of the player substitution, or can replay it from the beginning. The authority lies with the TFF. The additional report that Yasin Kol will provide is very important in terms of clarifying what happened here."
