Reportedly, the supporter has been identified as Ali Demirkaya and he was not allowed to enter Turkey’s Denizli Ataturk Stadium for around 12 months. However, it is unclear why he wasn’t allowed to enter the particular stadium.
According to the media reports of Turkish football, Demirkaya started watching the match from the 75th minute. But later on, local police asked him to pull down his crane from the stadium premises. Although the man missed the final score, his favourite team won the match by 5-0.
