Wilfried Zaha, who was taken off the game in the last moments of the Galatasaray-Bandırmaspor match, reacted to the decision.
Galatasaray hosted Bandırmaspor in the last 16 rounds of the Turkish Cup and advanced to the quarter-finals by winning the match 3-2, after leading 3-0.
Wilfried Zaha, who started the match in the first 11, was the one who earned his team a penalty in the 37th minute. The 31-year-old football player, who could not play a very effective game during his time on the field except for the penalty position, got angry when he was taken out of the game in the last moments.
Galatasaray Coach Okan Buruk made a substitution in the 87th minute of the match, removing Zaha and adding 17-year-old Gökdeniz Gürpüz into the game.
However, Zaha, who saw his number on the sideline, reacted to this decision by opening his hands. After leaving the game, Zaha had a tense dialogue with both coach Okan Buruk and assistant coach İrfan Saraloğlu, and Okan Buruk tried to calm him down.
After Buruk said something to his player, Zaha took his place on the bench.
