Ankaragücü and Rizespor – a duel between two mediocre teams – was a razor-sharp match in the Turkish first division.

In a fiercely fought match, referee Halil Umut Meler had to hand out 12 yellow cards and also sent two players to the dressing room prematurely.

When striker Adolfo Gaich scored the 1-1 for the visitors deep in injury time, the home team’s situation boiled over.

Ankaragücü chairman Faruk Koca stormed onto the field and delivered a firm punch to the referee. While the poor man was on the ground, he also had to take kicks from fans.

Halil Umut Meler was left with a badly damaged face.
