This goal also determined the score of the first half.
HAKAN FELL VICTIM TO THE GROUND'S TREACHERY IN THE PENALTY
The National Team, which started the second half quickly, equalized the score to 1-1 with Hakan Çalhanoğlu's penalty goal in the 54th minute. Referee Damian Sylwestrzak indicated that Hakan played the ball twice due to slipping during the penalty, committing a rule violation. Sylwestrzak canceled the goal for this reason and awarded an indirect free kick.
KENAN FELL INTO A SUSPENDED SITUATION
Kenan Yıldız, who was on the yellow card limit in the National Team, received a yellow card after protesting to the referee in the 56th minute of the match. The young player was suspended due to this yellow card. Kenan will not be able to play in the match against Wales.
IRFAN CAN IGNITED THE FIRE
After the canceled penalty goal, the red-whites, who did not experience a mental drop, managed to equalize the score in the 62nd minute.
