Following Turkey's 3-2 victory over the USA, journalist Cüneyt Özdemir's goal celebration post sparked controversy. The tension between Özdemir and Yemeksepeti founder Nevzat Aydın escalated after Özdemir responded with harsh and profane language to Aydın's comment, "It's entirely a theater."
Turkey, who said goodbye to the World Cup in their second match, faced the USA in their third match. The Turkish National Team defeated the USA 3-2, winning a World Cup match for the first time in 24 years.
After the match, journalist Cüneyt Özdemir shared his goal celebration on his X account. While some users found Özdemir's post "exaggerated," many comments were made underneath the post.
NEVZAT AYDIN'S "THEATER" COMMENT
One of the names commenting on the post was Yemeksepeti founder Nevzat Aydın. Aydın responded to Özdemir's post with the following words:
"It's okay to celebrate, no problem with that, but the whole thing is theater."
After this comment, a harsh response came from Cüneyt Özdemir.
ÖZDEMIR'S SWEARING RESPONSE
Cüneyt Özdemir reacted to Nevzat Aydın's comment with swearing. In his post, Özdemir used the phrase, "You can f*** off!"
In the rest of his message, Özdemir shared the following statements:
"You didn't skip the island criticisms, did you? Not easy, rudeness Nevzat Bey... You can f*** off! This is the level you deserve. While celebrating our National Team's victory, let's not ask for an account from upstarts like you, if you please... (Teaching a rude person a lesson is like dressing an orphan in a caftan)"
NEVZAT AYDIN'S RESPONSE WAS NOT LATE
A harsh response came from Nevzat Aydın to Cüneyt Özdemir's words. Aydın replied to Özdemir with the words, "Ah, show your true face like this Cüneyt. Let everyone see what a complex-ridden jerk and sycophant you are."
In response, Özdemir used the following words: "Well, you're good; thanks to me, you'll be in the news again tomorrow. But you're just a filthy rich, terrible human being... You don't become anything just by being rich. Damn, when did you start waving the flag for the system? Tell us, let's listen!?!?" Nevzat Aydın then responded as follows:
"Exactly, keep going Cüneyt. You're getting heated, you've lost track of what to write; you've started making irrelevant insults and curses. You're a complex-ridden, pathetic jerk who thinks he's something, thinking being in the news is extraordinary. You're a journalist wannabe who constantly tries to attack me for making money (!) but worships money yourself. Oh, and you claim to be a journalist, yet you can't even write Turkish without spelling mistakes."
