An unacceptable incident has occurred during a match of the Kazakhstan Championship among football center and academy teams (players born in 2011) in Turkistan between "Turan" and "Ekibastuz."

The Kazakhstan Football Federation states: such actions are incompatible with the values of sport and the principles of football.

Football is a game founded on respect, fair competition, and the principles of Fair Play. Any manifestation of aggression and violence, especially at the youth level, constitutes a serious violation of sports ethics and human norms.

Referee reports and video recordings have already been submitted to the KFF Disciplinary and Ethics Committee. A meeting to review this incident will take place next week.

All individuals involved in the violation will face strict disciplinary measures, up to and including lifetime bans from football.

The KFF emphasizes that such behavior is unacceptable. Both on and off the pitch, everyone must adhere to regulations and ethical standards.

Football in Kazakhstan must remain pure. We are committed to ensuring this without compromise.
