The Turkish Football Association canceled the entire league after a club president punched a referee on the ground.



In the match between Turkish club Ankara Gökçe and Risespor at the Eryman Stadium on Monday, Ankara Gökçen's team was leading by one goal after 90 minutes of the match.


However, 7 minutes of injury time was given by the match referee, in the last minute of which, Risespor equalized the goal. This displeased the president of Ankara Goko, Farooq Koka, and he entered the field and punched the match referee. .


Referee Balil Mailer was further injured in the stampede, after which he was taken to the hospital for medical attention, where his condition is now out of danger.


The Turkish court ordered the arrest of Farooq Koka while sending two other suspects to prison on remand for torture.


Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan strongly condemned the incident and prayed for the referee's speedy recovery.


On the other hand, the Turkish Football Association condemned the incident and said that it is the most shameful day for Turkish football, after which all league matches have been canceled for an indefinite period.
