Turkish Referee to officiate Argentina v. Nigeria Match

[Elexus]

Turkish referee Cuneyt CAKIR will officiate Argentina’s final group (and potentially World Cup) match against Nigeria on Tuesday.
Does anyone know anything about this referee?

[YemiBrazil]

Strict disciplinarian - we have to be very careful.

That's the guy that sent off John Terry against Barcelona in 2011/2012 Champions league, also sent off Nani against Real Madrid at Old Trafford in 2013 while denying Man United two penalties in the process.

"Cakir famously sent off Keith Andrews at Euro 2012 after insisting that the Irishman move back an extra couple of inches in his defensive wall.
And shortly after he was at it again, dismissing Gerrard in a World Cup qualifier against Ukraine."

Seems reasonable and does not appear to award lots of pks or yellow cards.

That's Turkish hatred of the English at play there. The Turks can't stand the English.

The infamous Cuneyt Cakir set to be referee for Barcelona-Chelsea game


Crooked Ref and Messi groupie.........foolish Turkish scumbag

The infamous Cuneyt Cakir is set to referee the the upcoming Champions League game between Barcelona and Premier League giants Chelsea.

The Turk is no stranger to refereeing games between the two clubs and was in charge of the second leg during the famous semi-final game of the 2011-12 campaign. The Catalans had suffered elimination following a 2-2 draw in the second leg and Cakir had sent off John Terry for kneeing Alexis Sanchez, but Chelsea still progressed to the final.

He has refereed five more matches, out of which Barcelona have drawn only one and have won the others.

His most infamous game came in the 2012-13 game when Manchester United had hosted Real Madrid in the second leg of the Round of 16 round at Old Trafford. He had very controversially sent off Nani for a foul on Alvaro Arbeloa and hadn't awarded United deserved penalties twice in the game. Real had won the game 2-1 and United had been ousted from the tournament. The then Los Blancos manager Jose Mourinho had himself said that "The better team lost."

Cuneyt Cakir----match-fixing Turkey.


He was mentioned as Fenerbahce supporter referee in "Aziz's List" which was captured in Aziz Yildirim's private briefcase in the match-fixing investigation. [2]

According to Turkish daily Radikal report based on police records, Fenerbahce chairman Aziz Yildirim allegedly called the Turkish Football Federation (TFF), before his team’s derby match between Besiktas and Fenerbahce and said “Appoint Cuneyt Cakir to the derby match, and send me Cuneyt !” The February 20, 2011 derby, which was officiated by Cuneyt Cakir and ended in a 4-2 win for Fenerbahce, was seen as one of the more important milestones in the Fenerbahce’ march to the eventual championship. [3][4]

Fenerbahce chairman Aziz Yildirim had called the TFF prior to a game against Ankaragucu and asked again for referee Cuneyt Cakir to be appointed to officiate the game, which subsequently happened.[5] On 15 May 2011, according to final court decision on Match-Fixing Scandal; former Fenerbahce player Cemil Turan is also alleged to have offered $300,000 as bribe to Ankaragücü players ahead of a match which Fenerbahce SK won 6-0. Cuneyt Cakir showed a red card to Ankaragucu's Goalkeeper Senecky in 28th minute of the match and awarded three penalty kicks to Fenerbahce. [6][7]
