The controversial positions of the match in which Fenerbahçe defeated Samsunspor 2-0 away were evaluated on beIN Trio. Bülent Yıldırım, Aleks Taşçıoğlu, and Deniz Çoban agreed that the referee should have awarded a penalty for the intervention on Vedat Muriqi in the 5th minute.
The controversial positions of the Samsunspor-Fenerbahce match played in the Trendyol Super Lig were evaluated by the beIN Trio team.
In the program, the position where Fenerbahce expected a penalty in the 5th minute was put on the table. All three former referees stated that a penalty should have been given for the Samsunspor player's intervention on Vedat Muriqi.
"HE DOESN'T HAVE TO KILL HIM"
Bulent Yildirim stated that the position was a clear penalty and that VAR should have intervened as well, using the following statements:
"What is Guarino doing? He makes a very late and risky move. He hits his opponent recklessly with his sole. Clear penalty and yellow card. No impact is sought. I don't believe in such a story. He doesn't have to kill him. VAR intervention would also have been necessary."
"A CLEAR PENALTY AND YELLOW CARD"
Aleks Tascioglu also expressed the opinion that the referee's decision to continue play was wrong.
"He takes a risk, comes sliding and uncontrolled. There is an uncontrolled strike while the ball is in play. A clear penalty and yellow card."
"THE STUDS CAME TO MURIQI'S CALF"
Deniz Coban, on the other hand, stated that the intervention could not be considered a collision, saying the following:
"The Samsunspor player took no precautions. He did not do anything like pulling his foot back, reducing the impact, or slowing down when he realized he couldn't reach the ball. His leg is still stiff from the knee, and he points to his opponent with his studs. The studs came to Muriqi's calf. It is not possible for us to call it a collision. If his foot had been a little stiffer, a red card would have been discussed. A penalty would have been much more accurate."
Thus, all three commentators on the beIN Trio team expressed their opinion that Fenerbahce should have been awarded a penalty in the 5th minute.
