Bülent Yıldırım comments on the controversial incidents in the Kasımpaşa-Beşiktaş match

In Week 10 of the Süper Lig, Kasımpaşa hosted Beşiktaş at their ground. The black-and-whites, who took control with goals from Trossard and Vlahovic, could not prevent Winck and Rafferty from scoring. The match ended 2-2. Beşiktaş, who led 2-0, conceded an equalizer in the 87th minute and, taking their first draw of the league season, settled for 1 point.

The decisions of referee Reşat Onur Coşkunses drew wide reaction on social media and among commentators. Former referee Bülent Yıldırım evaluated Hajredinovic's incident. Yıldırım said that a clear goalscoring chance was created in this incident and that Nübel was late to the play. In his view, VAR should have intervened. Yıldırım argued that a red card should have been shown in this incident, 100 percent.

Yıldırım also commented on Murillo's challenge on Ayberk in another incident. Noting that the challenge was made with a left studded boot to the opponent's groin area, he said he believed it was a clear red card.

Yıldırım added that in another incident, Adem Atous, who was shown a yellow card, should have been sent off. He said this was overlooked by the referee and VAR.
