The images that emerged in Yoğurtçu Park and its surroundings in Kadıköy after Fenerbahçe's match against Lyon drew attention. Following the celebrations held on match day, numerous flares, plastic bottles, and various wastes were left on the ground, while cleaning crews worked intensely throughout the night to clean the area. It is noted that similar scenes occur almost every match evening.
THE FUN IS OVER, THE TRASH REMAINS
Yoğurtçu Park and its surroundings, one of the points where Fenerbahçe fans gather intensely during matches, were filled with large amounts of waste after the Lyon match.
In addition to the flares used during the celebrations on match day, plastic bottles and various garbage were seen left directly on the ground instead of in trash bins. The waste accumulated in the park's walking areas and at the base of trees created an unpleasant sight.
THE SAME SCENE EVERY MATCH EVENING
It is noted that similar scenes occur almost every match evening in the area, and fans leaving their garbage on the ground after celebrations adds an extra burden to cleaning crews.
Cleaning crews, who started working in the late hours, collected the waste spread across Yoğurtçu Park and its surroundings one by one. The workers spent a long time cleaning up the flares and garbage left behind.
These images remaining after the excitement of match days ends once again reveal that as much attention should be paid to environmental cleanliness as to the celebrations.
