In the 17th round match of the Turkish Super Lig between Istanbulspor and Trabzonspor, another scandal unfolded.

Initially, on the 11th minute, Trezeguet put Trabzonspor ahead in the score. Before the end of the first half, the hosts equalized. On the 39th minute, Sarikaya scored a goal. After the break, the guests once again took the lead, with Paul Onuachu scoring the second goal.

The main event occurred on the 73rd minute. The match referee did not award a penalty for Istanbulspor, even after VAR review, maintaining his initial decision. As a result, Istanbulspor President Faik Sariagioglu asked his players to leave the field in protest. Initially, they were reluctant to go to the locker room, but eventually changed their minds. The referee decided to suspend the match.

The 15th round of the Turkish Super League featured a match between Ankaragücü and Rizespor. The match itself ended in a 1-1 draw. However, the main events began after the match. The president of Ankaragücü, Faruk Kocaeli, ran onto the pitch and hit the match's chief referee, Halil Meler, in the eye. The referee fell to the pitch, and then an unknown person kicked him.
