Ten minutes later Argjent Ramadani brought back again to a goal negative. What followed was the interruption of the game. In the 75th minute the referee awarded Gorno Lisiche a penalty which led to a furious reaction by the Drita players especially the goalkeeper Burhan Mustafa and defender Iliknur Djaferi who were sent off for their behaviour. The penalty was never taken as all of Drita’s players and staff left the field and never came back. The rules are saying that Gorno Lisiche will be the winner of this outcome, it should be just verified by the FFM. On the other hand, Drita should expect a severe penalty for leaving the field.
