Sports commentator Hasan Şaş evaluated the match between Galatasaray and Union Saint-Gilloise. Criticizing the referee of the match, Hasan Şaş said, "You don't send a player off just because he has a yellow card. The coach is smart; he took the player off right after he scored the goal. You are a disgrace, referee. With your management today, you have ruined this match."
Galatasaray lost 1-0 to Belgium's Union Saint-Gilloise in the 5th week of the UEFA Champions League. Sports commentator Hasan Şaş made statements after the match, harshly criticizing referee Jose Maria Sanchez.
''IT'S OBVIOUS HE HAS A LACK OF INTELLIGENCE''
Criticizing the referee's decisions, Hasan Şaş said, ''I don't know where he was born, I don't know how he was raised, but it's very clear that he has a lack of intelligence. A player can be treated outside, but he comes and throws himself onto the field, and he doesn't show a yellow card to that player. There is a player named Mac Allister. He commits six clear fouls on Barış Alper Yılmaz. If a football player commits six fouls in a match, he should receive a yellow card.''
''YOU HAVE NO HONOR!''
Continuing his remarks, Hasan Şaş said, ''You send off a young player like Arda for a second yellow card. But why couldn't you send off the striker Promise, who stepped on Uğurcan's foot, for a second yellow card? You don't send him off because he already has a yellow card. The coach is smart; he took him off right after he scored. You are a referee without honor. With your management today, you have ruined this match.''
