The match between the rivals on 16 November 1991 sparked a debate that lasted for many years.{{Cite web |last=Şafak |first=Yeni |title=Efsane Beşiktaş - Fenerbahçe derbileri ve efsane kadrolar {{!}} Futbol Haberleri |url=https://www.yenisafak.com/foto-galeri/spor/efsane-besiktas--fenerbahce-derbileri-ve-efsane-kadrolar-2017262 |access-date=2023-12-08 |website=Yeni Şafak |language=tr-TR}}

In the 87th minute of the 1991–92 1.Lig match between the rivals hosted at Şükrü Saraçoğlu Stadium, Beşiktaş's Mehmet Özdilek scored the equalising goal making the score 2-2, which caused a long-lasting public debate as to whether the ball had crossed the goal line.

The prolonged appeals of Fenerbahçe players and the technical team did not change the result. Seventeen years after the match was played, the position was discussed in the Lig TV's programme Futbol Gündemi, according to the measurements of the device called "piero", it was determined that the ball crossed the line by 4 centimetres, putting an end to the discussions.{{Cite web |last=SPORTS |first=beIN |title=Tarihi sır Lig TV de çözüldü |url=https://beinsports.com.tr/haber/tarihi-sir-lig-tvde-cozuldu |access-date=2023-12-08 |website=beIN Sports |language=tr-TR}}
