His decision to send off Burak was dreadful and why did he not give the penalty when he could easily see it was one. I would like to give him a zero rating but in the laws of football you have to give the ref at least a mark for turning up. But he should of stayed at home. Disgraceful. One final point about the ref is that he is a clown and should go back to the circus MVP of the match: Altay Can for Konya who held the defence together when they were down to ten men Entertainment value: Hacilar:6 - Konya:8 Goal of the game: Only one but it was well taken by Ferhat Sumary: Hacılar were content just to sit here and not lose to keep pride intact and were surprised when they scored the winner against the Konya Konyaspor: It never bothered them that they lost a player for 70 minutes and really should have won with ten men. The referee went against them from the first whistle and really this spoiled everything about the game, but an excellent spirit shown with great passion after the sending off deserves to give them the team of the 2nd league award from me at the end of the season. This award will be only based on teams televised
