Karsiyaka ASK 2021/22 Home Shirt

Grouped pinstripes, the TRNC flag and 1957 on the crest and, on the sleeve, the K-Pet 1.Lig patch, the Turkish Cypriot second tier named after the local oil company. But the chest belongs to the village butcher: Pasaoğluları, with a bull's head, a cleaver and the word butcher in English and Russian, a faithful portrait of a Karşıyaka full of foreigners since the building boom on the Kyrenia coast. On the back, KARŞIYAKA up top and SPORT TARGET where a name would go.

The 2021/22 season in a football world that lives outside FIFA, where titles only count for those who are there.

Here at Hoopster, this shirt crosses the Green Line to join the Omonia pair: the same divided island, the same stripes on both sides.
