Last week, when the Czech Republic played Turkey, it was pure chaos. In summary, a total of 18 cards were shown, 16 yellow and 2 red. Bewilderingly, 5 of those cards were given to players who weren’t on field, so what really happened?
At the start of the game, the Czech Republic was dominating. However, a yellow card was first handed to midfielder Antonin Barak when he dragged left-back Ferdi Kadioglu. Unfortunately, Barak didn’t take the hint and continued to play harsh, risky attacks on opponents. In an attempt to surpass Salih Ozcan, Barak stuck his foot out, unsuccessfully blocking the ball. While Ozcan went on with the ball, Barriker Patrick Schick. According to this article, ak received his second yellow of the game.
The third yellow was given to stplayer Ismail Yuksek got knocked over by Lukas Provod, and then he violently thrashed in pain on the grass. When Schick saw this, he “forcefully pleaded” with the referee that Provod should get some sort of punishment for being too hostile. Because he was essentially arguing with the referee, he received a yellow and a strict warning.
A few more yellow cards were handed to both sides for harsh tackling. Later on into the night, Czech Republic’s striker, Thomas Chory received a red card for breaking out into a physical brawl with Mert Gunok. There, the referee handed out even more yellows, struggling to keep things under control.
That night, chaos unveiled itself. After many violent tackles, the game finished with Turkey winning 2-1. While it was very disorderly, it sure will leave a core memory in everyone’s hearts.
