Emmanuel Emenike Should Have Been Yellow Carded For Attempting To Sub Himself

Galatasaray have argued that Emmanuel Emenike should have been shown a yellow card by referee Firat Aydinus for attempting to substitute himself when Fenerbahce met Besiktas in the last round of matches.

Going by the rules, the Nigeria international ought to have been cautioned by the match official for attempting to walk away from the pitch and pulling off his jersey.

In addition, Emmanuel Emenike returned to the pitch without taking permission from the referee , as it is the norm.

Aside the 27 - year - old’s poor form in front of goal, the forward also has a poor disciplinary record in the Super lig, having been cautioned 6 times already.

Emmanuel Emenike was booked five times last season, but he has already surpassed that unwelcome statistic with nine games yet to be decided.
