Cup of Belgium is Happy, but not euphoric: that’s how it feels Onur Kaya after KV Mechelen is Tuesday qualified for the cup final. The 32-year-old playmaker of Malinwa will on 1 may itself geelgeschorst must watch. “I had a little more empathy from the referee hoped.”

It was a slightly weary Onur Kaya, which us yesterday, was talking in his house in Brussels. The night before had players and supporters of KV Mechelen in their own stadium up to two hours at night bekerkwalificatie celebrated. A few hours later had Kaya already getting up because he is in the hospital with a bruised toe had to be checked. The again on the toe however is small beer compared to the heartache that Kaya has by his suspension.

“I think it’s very sad to find that I will also be there in the finals can’t,” sigh Kaya, ref Nicolas Laforge shortly after the won semi-finals on Union kl***referee had called. A few hours later sounded the midfielder is already more moderate, but still… “A referee for such a match is identified, would be some more empathy is allowed to show. That man knows in advance who is on one card of suspension. Then you are one of those players, nevertheless, not yellow, without obvious violation? I went into the conscious phase, just in a duel and was severely punished. In this way, I miss a highlight in my career. Okay, I won already in two cup finals with Lokeren and Zulte Waregem, but was so happy to have a look at the Heysel stood.”

Voetbalschandaal

According to Kaya it is not the first time this season that KV Mechelen is adversely affected may feel by the arbitration. “Since the club is mentioned in the voetbalschandaal I have the feeling that referees KV approach it differently. There is already a little faster in our disadvantage blown, perhaps out of fear for god. Within the cast of actors we are going to be happy quite mature with the situation. This is also apparent from our results. At the same time, we hope that clarity. Now it can go in any direction, and that’s pretty frustrating.”
