Most football lovers worship their club and can hardly miss any match or hear a word against their favourite team. So, when a Turkish fan was banned to enter the football stadium for 12 months, he went to “great heights” to watch the match — quite literally! Instead of fighting with the authorities, he rented a crane and watched the football club Denizlispor’s match from outside the stadium.

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 respective 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.
