Karagumruk lost 1-3 at home to Trabzonspor this Friday, but the match was marked by controversy between the coach and a player in the first half. Matías Kravenitter was injured in the 34th minute, and Stanojevic prepared to make a substitution. However, the 32-year-old Argentine midfielder ignored the coaching staff's orders. Berkay Ozcan was already ready to enter the field and take his place in midfield, with the fourth official raising the substitution board, but despite the coach's insistence on making the change, Kravenitter refused to leave the field, claiming he was fine. At that moment, his team had just scored the equalizer (1-1), with Verde scoring in the 28th minute, and moments earlier, the visitors had faced another setback – Cinar came on for the injured Biraschi. Nevertheless, the Serbian coach was prepared to use two substitution stops still in the first half. Frustrated by his refusal, Ozcan momentarily returned to the bench and saw his teammate continue on the field, but only until halftime. At the start of the second half, the Argentine did not return, and it was the Turk who came on. The truth is that these were decisive minutes, as Nwaiwu scored twice (47' and 50') and was crucial in securing the victory for the visitors. Esgaio was a starter and played the full 90 minutes. This moment recalled the disagreement between goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, now at Arsenal, and Maurizio Sarri, now at Lazio, during the English League Cup final in 2019. The Chelsea keeper had physical complaints but insisted on staying on the field, even though Caballero was ready to come on in time for the penalty shootout. Sarri was extremely frustrated, and the Londoners lost without the Spaniard saving a penalty.
