Things got out of hand after the Peninsula Derby in İzmir, where İmren Alaçatıspor defeated Çeşme Belediyespor 2-0. Çeşme Mayor Lal Denizli, wanting to calm the brawl that broke out among the players, climbed over the wire-mesh iron gate and entered the pitch. Those moments of Denizli were captured on camera.
The Peninsula Derby, played in the 3rd week of Group 4 of the İzmir Super Amateur League, drew attention with the events that occurred after the final whistle. In the match between İmren Alaçatıspor and Çeşme Belediyespor, who faced each other at Alaçatı Field on Sunday, November 8, the home team won 2-0, while tension arose among the players at the end of the match. The way Çeşme Mayor Lal Denizli entered the pitch to intervene in the incidents was one of the most striking moments of the match.
LAL DENİZLİ CLIMBED OVER THE WIRE-MESH GATE AND ENTERED THE PITCH
As the match ended, an argument broke out between the players of the two teams. When the tension quickly turned into a scuffle, Çeşme Mayor Lal Denizli also took action. Wanting to calm the players and separate the sides, Denizli entered the pitch by climbing over the wire-mesh iron gate. While those moments of the mayor were captured by cameras, Çeşme District Police Chief İsmail Kenar also intervened to calm the incidents.
THREE RED CARDS WERE SHOWN IN THE DERBY
The battle on the pitch was also quite tense. In the match, whose first half ended goalless, İmren Alaçatıspor took the lead with Erdi Önal's goal in the 73rd minute. The home team increased the difference to two with the goal scored by Ali Selcik in the 80th minute and left the pitch with a 2-0 victory.
Three players saw red cards in the match. Mehmet Hamza Sincar from İmren Alaçatıspor was sent off in the 12th minute, Umut Demir from Çeşme Belediyespor in the 75th minute, and Ali Selcik from Alaçatıspor in the 82nd minute.
ALAÇATISPOR MADE IT THREE WINS OUT OF THREE
İmren Alaçatıspor, who left the derby with a victory, also won its third match in the league, increasing its points to 9 and maintaining its leadership. However, rather than the result of the match, the scuffle after the final whistle and the images of Lal Denizli climbing over the wire-mesh gate and entering the pitch drew attention.
