ÇAĞDAŞ ALTAY'S DECISIONS WERE HIGHLY DISCUSSED
The decisions made by Çağdaş Altay, the referee of the match between Kocaelispor and Galatasaray in the Trendyol Super League, were widely debated. In the 'Trio' program aired on the broadcasting network, former referees Deniz Çoban, Bülent Yıldırım, and Bahattin Duran commented on the whistles blown during the Kocaelispor - Galatasaray match.
IS THERE OFFSIDE IN GALATASARAY'S DISALLOWED GOAL?
Bülent Yıldırım: The ball goes through the legs of the Kocaelispor player. The position is offside. If we remove Sara from there, both the goalkeeper and the player there could have had a different position on the ball. Therefore, it is offside. From start to finish.
Deniz Çoban: It is incorrect to discuss the position over the goalkeeper. The struggle between Sara and the number 14 player is important. There is a defender involved in a duel there. The attacking player affects the possibility of saving the ball, even if it is by 1%. The disallowance decision is correct.
Bahattin Duran: The last man is the number 2 player. Sara has a clear impact on both players, it is a clear offside. The method of showing the position is correct, it is a clear offside. The disallowance is correct.
