One of the wealthiest footballers in the world, Samuel Eto'o, showed courage.
The African playing for the team "Antalyaspor" was motivated by an impressive sum of money, hoping that the team's results would significantly improve.
It is reported that the Turkish team, performing poorly in the local championship, drew the anger of fans when they managed to secure their first victory in the seventh round.
To one "Antalyaspor" fan, Mehmet Akdeniz, Eto'o promised a heap of euros after the match if the game does not improve.
"We will finish the championship among the top ten league clubs. I promise you this, and if it doesn't happen, I will give you 100,000 euros," he said.
