In the TFF 3rd League Group 4, before the match between İzmir teams Altay and Tire 2021 FK, the 5 kuruş tickets put on sale by the home team for the visiting fans sparked controversy, while the Tire team responded to their rival after the match with a post saying, "The account didn't add up."
5 KURUŞ TICKET TENSION INCREASED
In the match played between the two teams in the first half of the season, the away ticket prices for Altay fans were set at 325 TL, and incidents occurred in the protocol stand and later in the locker room corridors during the match. As a retaliation for the events that occurred in the first half, the Altay management set the guest stand tickets at a symbolic 5 kuruş for yesterday's match, while President Sinan Kanlı shared on social media, "Everyone gets what they deserve."
'THE ACCOUNT DIDN'T ADD UP'

The post from Tire FK included visuals of 5 kuruş, stating, "How did you make Büyük Altay dependent on 5 kuruş with your management? As you say, our 5 kuruş team taught you much more than 5 kuruş worth of football."
ALTAY HAD WON THE FIRST MATCH
