Rain of goals in the Black Sea derby! Interesting event: Consecutive statements!

The referee complaints of the Super League teams continue in the Turkish Cup matches. Trabzonspor, which hosted Çaykur Rizespor at home in the Ziraat Turkish Cup Group A match, rebelled on social media during the match with the claim of a penalty not being given and complaints about mismanagement.

In the statement made by TrabzonSpor under the title "THE CENTRAL REFEREES BOARD HAS EXERCISED THE ZERO!", there is no room for error in Turkish football. At this point, it has become clear as day how 'incompetent' and 'bad-intentioned' the local referees are.

As Trabzonspor Club, we had brought up on December 17, 2024 that the current situation would constitute a 'national security' issue. So much so that; the referee mistakes that occurred and the subsequent reactions of the clubs caused a match to be completed with 40 thousand security personnel in Istanbul. These moments went down in history as one of the clearest images of how the institution of refereeing has completely gotten out of hand and has become uncontrollable.

The Central Arbitration Board, which is the main responsible for all this disgrace, has lost its seriousness and credibility and has run out of resources.

We have a clear call for our country's football to the President of the Turkish Football Federation, Mr. İbrahim Ethem Hacıosmanoğlu. Take responsibility for the Central Referee Committee and take the necessary steps regarding this 'shady' institution immediately. Tomorrow will be too late!

"Trabzonspor Club" was said.

Immediately after this statement, the referee of the match, Ümit Öztürk, took himself off the bench, citing an issue with his Achilles tendon and informing the Trabzonspor technical staff. The remaining part of the match was officiated by the fourth referee, Davut Çelik.

If the referee is unable to perform his duties according to the rules of the game, he can be replaced. By the way, Trabzonspor won the match with a clear score of 5 - 2.
