Shocking Match-Fixing Statement from Tekin Birinci!

Birinci, who shared his thoughts on social media, asserted that the Cyprus Turkish Football Federation's (KTFF) decision to postpone the match was based on solid evidence. He emphasized that similar situations around the world have resulted in severe penalties, citing Juventus as the most significant example. Birinci stated, "If there is a club official or a licensed individual involved, they should be given exemplary punishments and kept away from football for a long time."

Birinci's statement is as follows:

"There is another major scandal in TRNC football, this time match-fixing... And the match is postponed with the approval of the Federation President. This indicates that there is serious, tangible evidence. In the world, the penalty for such an incident is definite relegation; if you want an example, look at Juventus.

If there is a club official or any licensed person involved, they should be given exemplary punishments and kept away from football for a long time. The fact that the Federation President is personally overseeing this incident is a promising development. I think now, with the penalties to be imposed, the teams that were said to be relegated will have new hope, and the championship race in the league will become quite intense."
