He transferred from Bayern Munich to Istanbul in the summer and was welcomed enthusiastically. In the 27th minute, Sane scored the first goal for the Lions, and the excitement reached its peak. However, the match was suddenly interrupted: Kazımcan Karataş was hit in the face by an object thrown by a Fenerbahçe fan. After a brief intervention and protests from the players, the match continued, but the field was surrounded by hundreds of police officers."

N-TV.DE: "DERBY HERO"
