Konyaspor President Ömer Korkmaz made statements that will be widely discussed after their 3-2 defeat against Fenerbahçe. Korkmaz reacted to the referee of the match and pointed out the negative effects of the rivalry between Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray.

"WE LOST TO THE REFEREE, NOT FENERBAHÇE!"

Evaluating the match, Korkmaz said, "There was a beautiful struggle here. This league is not just about two teams! Every match is more valuable from now on! As Anatolian teams, we want to be satisfied with these decisions. The Anatolian clubs are hurting. Kostic had at least 3 yellow cards at Fenerbahçe. Dzeko had a red card. We conceded a goal from a position that was not a corner. How far can we go with these! If an elbow was thrown in the penalty area in Kadıköy, wouldn't a penalty be given? There is no referee on the field, there is no referee in VAR. If the players made the decisions, even Fenerbahçe players would have sent off 2 players. I was proud of my players, and I told them. I said, 'We lost to the referees, not Fenerbahçe,'" he stated.

"THE FENERBAHÇE-GALATASARAY RIVALRY IS CAUSING UNEASE"

Korkmaz expressed his discomfort with the rivalry between Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray, saying, "The internal rivalry of Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray has started to make us uneasy. While watching the Galatasaray match, I say, 'I hope there won't be a referee mistake, it might happen in our match tomorrow.' We have come to this point! I am not sad that we lost; we saw the situation. My players are rebelling, saying 'Protect our rights,' but what can I do? I am speaking here; what else can we do? We watch the Başakşehir-Galatasaray match as if it were our own match. We want nothing to happen! Will our speeches be banned? I don't know what will happen. If football in Turkey is just about a few clubs, let them play among themselves." he said.

"THEY PUT PRESSURE ON A WEEK IN ADVANCE"

President Korkmaz also stated, "Turkish referees manage matches well if they do not feel pressure. They put pressure on their opponents and referees a week in advance."
