Ankaragucu president Faruk Koca has been arrested after physically assaulting referee Halil Umut Meler during a top-flight game on Monday. The incident occurred after Ankaragucu conceded a 97th-minute equalizer in a 1-1 draw with Caykur Rizespor. The Turkish league has been suspended as a result, and FIFA president Gianni Infantino has condemned the violence, calling for strict implementation of safety measures. Koca and two others have been arrested, while the investigation continues. The incident highlights the need for a peaceful and safe environment in sports, and steps should be taken to prevent such violent incidents in the future.

It is crucial for all stakeholders, including clubs, players, and fans, to understand the importance of fair play and respectful behavior in the game. Authorities need to ensure the safety and security of match officials to preserve the integrity of football.
