Amedspor captain slashes five Sakaryaspor opponents with razor blade in Turkey

The rivalry between lower league Turkish teams Amedspor and Sakaryaspor took a sickening turn when Amedspor captain Mansur Calar reportedly took a razor blade onto the pitch and repeatedly slashed at opponents, injuring 5 of them.

After the customary pre-match handshakes were over, Calar appeared to slash at Sakaryaspor’s Ferhat Yazgan from behind, before allegedly going for his throat, RT reported.

The game ended 1-1 after both teams converted penalties, but the shocking reports of the razor attack have dominated the sports headlines in Turkey.

Amedspor have rejected the claims, calling them a slur on their reputation.
