Chaos erupted in Turkey after Ankaragucu club president Faruk Koca punched referee Halil Umut Meler at the end of his team's Superlig match against Rizespor. Ankaragucu conceded a late goal which saw the match end in a 1-1 draw and an enraged Koca ran onto the pitch and shockingly punched the referee in his face. As Meler fell, he was also attacked by fans and later cops had to intervene to ensure his safety. The Turkish Football Federation subsequently issued a statement condemning this attack and announced that all leagues have been suspended. "The Turkish Football Federation has decided to suspend all games in all leagues indefinitely," the Federation's statement on social media read. Granada vs Athletic Club Bilbao Match in La Liga 2023-24 Suspended After Fan Passes Away in Stands Due to Heart Attack.
