In the 10th week of the Super League, Fenerbahçe defeated Gaziantep FK 4-0 away with two goals each from Youssef En-Nesyri and Anderson Talisca. The harsh intervention by Abena on Talisca became the most talked-about moment of the night.
Ümit Karan, who commented on the match on Ekol Sports, could hardly contain his anger while evaluating the incident that resulted in a red card.
"IT WAS AN ATTEMPTED MURDER"
Ümit Karan harshly criticized Abena's action during the live broadcast. Karan said, "Abena! Do you know how much Talisca earns, brother? It was an attempted murder. What does it mean to jump from behind! It's a shame, if they did the same to you, I would say the same thing. There is no such jump; you directly harm a person's health," he said.
Karan also commented on the match referee Atilla Karaoğlan, saying, "He has been holding a card since the morning, constantly distributing them. But what does it mean to see such a clear position from VAR! It happens right in front of him. If you can't see such an obvious position, then quit football and let us play!"
"FENERBAHÇE PLAYED 2 MORE MATCHES AT THIS PACE"
Karan concluded by praising Fenerbahçe's performance, stating, "Fenerbahçe won the match very comfortably today. At this pace, they could play two more matches if they wanted. But with such referee decisions, the joy of football is lost, and the game is betrayed," he said. Ümit Karan's outburst quickly became a trending topic on social media and resonated widely among football fans.
