In the 82nd minute of the Kocaelispor match played in week 7 of the Süper Lig, Dusan Vlahovic went down after Emir Ortakaya's intervention and Beşiktaş waited for a penalty. Former referee Fırat Aydınus stated that the match referee should have awarded a penalty for this position, while Ali Gültiken argued that a red card and a penalty should have been given.
In the 7th week of the Trendyol Süper Lig, Beşiktaş hosted Kocaelispor, defeated their opponent 2-1, increased their points to 15 and rose to second place in the league.
BEŞİKTAŞ WAITED FOR A PENALTY
Beşiktaş waited for a penalty in the 82nd minute of the match. Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic went down and held his face after a challenge with Emir Ortakaya off the ball. The black-and-whites appealed for a penalty, stating that the opposing player hit Vlahovic in the face, but the referee let play continue.
FIRAT AYDINUS: "PENALTY!"
Evaluating the position, former referee Fırat Aydınus stated that the position was a penalty and commented, "In the 82nd minute, Emir's action against Vlahovic starts outside the penalty area and continues inside the penalty area before ending. A penalty should have been awarded. The referee should have watched the position on the VAR monitor, evaluated whether the action was illegal hand-arm use or violent conduct, and given the necessary disciplinary punishment accordingly. In my opinion, illegal hand-arm use is yellow card-penalty."
ALİ GÜLTİKEN: "PENALTY AND RED CARD''
Ali Gültiken, who made a statement on the broadcaster, also commented on the position, saying, "Did the rules change? Is slapping allowed in football? There is a slap thrown at Vlahovic. Play continued as if nothing had happened. Slapping a player means a red card. Penalty and red card."
