Mondial-2026 : Un commentateur turc suspendu pour avoir confondu l’Iran et la Nouvelle Zélande
The sanction is brutal. Turkish channel TRT commentator Murat Ekrem Cimen has been suspended for confusing Iran and New Zealand for 4 minutes during the World Cup match between the two teams.
The poor journalist got the jersey colors wrong. As a result, he presented Iran's offensive actions as those of New Zealand and vice versa.
"The mistake made during the commentary of the Iran-New Zealand match is unacceptable."
For the Turkish channel, this mistake by its commentator is "unacceptable".
"The error made during the commentary of the Iran-New Zealand match played this morning at 4 a.m. Turkish time, as part of the FIFA World Cup 2026, is unacceptable according to TRT's broadcasting standards," the media outlet said in a statement, before apologizing to viewers and the public.
