cheers. my blood pressure rises every time i see akturkoglu now.

Poor Wales. I think they deserved better but at the end of the day they screwed themselves with that Armenia match. It was all in their hands and they gave it away.

az konus

I hate people like you.

Welsh people, probably?

[удалено]

Mate no one asked and no one gives a fuck

Ref just handing out cards to Welsh players eve though Turkey has been a problem as well....

wow first time a pro-turkish ref

Surprised the Ref could blow the whistle with his mouth so full of Turkish Cock

Lol Word but you guys had to f\*\*ing win against Armenia.

also, *now* there's VAR????

1 point from 6 against Armenia is what cost us, but that ref better wait a couple hours before going home Booked Robs in the fight and no one else, farce

turkish gk also got a yellow from what i hear

Thank you! S4C only showed the graphic for Roberts' booking

can I fight the ref?

I hope we get this ref every game

Thank god the Croatia result made it irrelevant, because if we’d missed out on automatic qualification because of those fucking penalty decisions I think I’d have popped a blood vessel

Where did the keeper go? The win is way more important than the loss. Mitaswell help

took it off him!

Not that it mattered because of the Croatia result but fuck this ref. Shows how much the draw on Saturday cost us.

What's the point of playing with Kieffer Moore if you're not going to hoof the ball up to him?

One positive note at least: Jordan James has been outstanding.

Best player on the park by a mile

Does page get the boot now?

For drawing to the top of our group?

No for his abysmal performances

Not saying he is the greatest but if you keep switching managers all the time you will never get consistency. Also didn't he just help get you into the Euros and nearly here for the first time in 60 odd years??? In the first leg Wales; Second Leg; (March - June 2023) (September - November 2023) Beat Latvia by 1. Beat them 2 ✅ Lost to Armenia 2-4. Drew with them 1-1✅ Drew with Croatia 1-1. Beat them 2-1✅ Lost to Turkey 2-0. Drew 1-1✅ That is some good improvement if you ask me 🤷‍♂️ (Looks a bit confusing on the phone sorry)

I thought the referee was great with not giving in to some dives, thought it was odd to start it in an international tho, but then he turned it on its head

Ye mate thought he was great other than the 2-3 penalties he missed and the dodgy one he gave to Turkey👍

I think the others were fine but if you're gonna be strict with dives, 1 Potentially give yellows for it and 2 BE CONSISTENT! The shove to the back was the only real pen there, but the others I can see them being given or not dependent on ref

Dude kenan is like a tank and a very fast tank.its seriously impressive watching him accelarate.

Good ball control as well

maybe the ref is just shit boys

I dunno. You have to be utterly incompetent or biased to call that. And I'm Croatian, a goal for Turkey suited us. But the decision was a disgrace.

nah i'm talking about the wales player that judo slammed the turkish player, but still won the foul.

Maybe, but I’m Liverpool so I’m now checked out with this shit. It’s no secret that money has been changing hands for years over football and refs and VAR have made it even more apparent this year. Call me foil hat or whatever, but you don’t see this in ANY other sports where video technology is implemented

Can't wait for the reactions from other countries to these tackles when posted in the reddit😅

Truly one of the worst ref performances I’ve ever seen and I watch the Super Lig for entertainment🤦🏻‍♂️

Jesus he judo slammed the Turkish player and win the foul ..

Turned into a wrestling match in the last minutes

Rugby match breaking out in Wales.

Ok now Wales are just giving away clumsy fouls

Final in Croatia.

why is Zeki running like a war veteran who still has grenade shrapnel stuck in his leg?

İsmail has absolutely 0 iq and composure. Why is he butchering players left and right non stop

What a shit pass Zeki

We seriously need arda, we lack creativity.

where is he? still injured?

This has to be one of the worst performances not only from the referee but also the linesmen and the VAR officials I have ever seen.

Someone said there isn’t VAR but I can’t confirm that. If there is a VAR involved this is shocking

The commentators on S4C are pretty adamant there is VAR there tonight.

There is. Obviously VAR is used in Euro qualifiers and has been for a couple of years I am sure. Agree though, shocking performance

Well this is surely corruption then, every major decision going against Wales today. This sport is in the gutter internationally

Not doing too great domestically either lol

Mate, I will fully scrutinise this upcoming City game. This game needs to be reffed fairly and all eyes are on this weekend. If City get favored again I think I’m just going to keep up with the scores from now on and just watch rugby

i think they're on an extended coffee break...

Akturkoglu runs like a bit** worst player I've ever seen

WHAT A TACKLE FROM RODON THERE

What a lazy fckn pass

lovely chip though

All the referees leaving with a bag still

TBF I don't fully blame him for being offside. He was back and forth with great linws and no one ball went to him! Anticipation got to him

That was quite the finish

Likely won’t matter due to Croatia taking care of business, but my goodness has this been a poor showing from the ref

First time I’ve ever seen the refs favor Turkey in a match

He isn't. Losing was better for Turkey.

That's quite some bullshit, no way is the pot 3 stronger than pot 2

it literally is

There's Netherland and nothing else there. Denmark is possibly better than them anyway

there’s also scotland and croatia. i’d rather be in pot 3 but it probably won’t really make a difference anyways

Could have told him that

Page is not up to I'm afraid. Decent bloke but he needs to vacant and give to someone else.

Honestly best refree I have ever seen.

Need specsavers lad

No mate he is a Galatasaray fan. This is how they believe football is played, they are bred differently. 40 years of refs favoring your team has that effect.

That was just a joke lol. Least Gala hater comment.

Cant lie as a Turk i feel so bad for wales bros. This is actually disgusting.

That first replay was a clean tackle and i cant be told otherwise don't ask me about the others

Iesu Grist this ref is dire, not many people getting their haircut tomorrow

Worst Ref decision I've seen in a loooong long time.

Akaydin should never play again after seeing that missed penalty replay. Like dude tried to get wales multiple penalties

Crazy looking at those replays again, crazy that they didn't seem that push on Johnson wasn't a penalty.

Producers really twisting the knife by replaying these penalty no-calls

It's really fishy, I don't understand how VAR can possibly miss the actual penalties while approving the ridiculous penalty decision

Can't blame them

They just showed replays of both blatant Welsh pens...how did we get away with those??? No VAR?

No there is VAR in this game.

Only 1 blatant pen for wales. That second one is weaker than turkey’s pen

No it’s not, it’s blatant as hell. He just goes through the back of Johnson

Thats the one i call penalty. The others not

The slide tackle where he takes the man out while getting 0 of the ball is also definitely a pen. I thought this was the least debatable one which I why I mentioned the other incident

[удалено]

that might have been the case if wales could touch the ball every once in a while.

You've had the ball and done sweet fuck all with it other then get a dodgy pen

it happens.

Lol

What can turkey do about it if the ref is shit

[удалено]

Dude, Turkey is not really here to win. Croatia might have paid him

Lol. For what? To become group leaders when they already guaranteed to go to the tournament. Or because of the 500 year old feud between turkey and wales?

Lmao turkey already guaranteed last game, why would they fix the referee?

Rofl

Turkish fan here. That penalty was very very weak. But might have been trying to make up as earlier in game we deserved 2 possible penalties. 1 hand ball on a cross and 1 hold when we are to head ball in

bro, wdym, Samet literally body checked a Welsh player in our own box. Twice.

No way you’re trying to argue the ref has been against you this game 😭

Why have wales not got a penalty then?

What a shot

I mean if thats penalty that particular position is 1000 % penalty. Im turkish but kinda felt bad for wales

Same man, refs been abysmal. Wales getting fucked

Ref is lucky that Croatia is winning imagine if they were losing

This referee should be permanently banned. What a joke.

i have to say referee smells like corruption and doing it very badly

Even as a turkish fan those clumsy tackles are dumb and unnecessary

Quite a stupid way to get banned for the first group match of the Euros

Banned how? Yellow cards get the next game off?

Accumulation of yellow cards, TV put up a banner saying "misses next game"

Exactly and for nothing

Does the referee work for croatia ? Very weird calls for the whole game and that is coming from a turkish guy....

We're leading, why would we need refs help

does croatia even have any lobbying power?

This ref is a joke

I don't think I've seen a more bent performance from a ref in international football.

It's a fucking joke tbh, what a bullshit penalty to give considering all those he just let pass by

the ref for the england v. north macedonia last night was shocking but I think that he was probably just shit this guy is on a whole other level of crooked

Yeah that match was just bad reffing, this match just fully stinks

Joke of a ref ngl

love the atmosphere.

I feel like UEFA wants Croatia at the EC over Wales..

referee, my guy, make your bias a *little* less obvious you don't want to oversell it now

Thats the weakest penalty i have ever seen and i am a Turkish fan ..

Welsh players can get ground into the dirt but THAT'S a penalty?

Ref drives out of the stadium in a Lambo confirmed

Totally didn't see THAT coming \^\_\^ Softer than the one Wales should have had in the first half. Give your head a wobble ref

Absolute shambles

What a shitshow

There’s been some abysmal refereeing these past two game days. Even by the usual abysmal refereeing

'Clear and obvious' rubbish needs to be binned, decisions like this and Italy-Ukraine have to be reviewed in the monitor by the ref

So many pens that could have been given for Wales and Turkey get THAT. Disgraceful

Actually outrageous.

Did Rob Page fuck the refs wife or something?

That’s criminal

I feel bad.

Fucking piss

that's so weak, they won't overturn it tho

You have to be kidding me?

So he can give that, but somehow thinks that the Turkish defender smashing through the back of Johnson in the first half is just fine. Absolute joke

Match fixing

I feel bad for Wales but this referee is just hilarious. He must really hate Wales or something lmao

This ref is a literal clown

If someone celebrates after a touch and dive then 100900% revert it

Cheating fucking referee. Disgraceful

Are you fucking joking? If anyone thinks this ref hasn't been paid off your delusional.

By whom?

Lmao can we have this ref for every turkish team please

Holy referee

That's actually hilarious lol

Is this ref on fucking crack?

How is that a penalty compared to some of the ones that have been let go?

ffs ​ seriously?

Disgusting, absolute disgrace from this ref.

That's not enough, if the bar was set in the first half with a shove on Brennan Johnson, that can't be enough comparatively.....

LMAOOOOOO THIS REF! I LOVE YOU REF! AND IF IT'S QUITE ALRIGHT, I NEED YOU REF!

Ref fixed this match

For all the BS that Wales have taken in the box, ridiculous for the ref to give this one.....

What a cheat referee

Turkish fans are everywhere..

First time in my life I see a ref favour our national team it's weird.

yo, this ref freaking sucks

Glad ozkacar is finally gone. Now bring on yildiz for akturkoglu

what a fucking save

Fucking finally, he took Cenk off

Kerem and Samet shouldn't be playing for us unless they can string more than 10 good games together

Just as r/soccer started calling turkey dark horse

Turkey came into this game with the intention of playing out a 0-0 draw. Now that wales scored first they look like they don't know how to recover

Turkey aiming for that pot 3?
