An interesting moment occurred during Macedonia’s devastating road game against Armenia. When captain Velice Sumulikoski was shown a red card, he attempted to give his armband to the Austrian referee.

In the 53rd minute of the game, to summon the Macedonian misery in Yerevan, captain Velice Sumulikoski was sent off after he was given a second yellow card by the referee.  Both yellow cards were for poor fouls.  Velice was not happy with the decision and than tried on several occasions to give his captain armband to the Austrian referee Robert Schörgenhofer who obviously refused to take it and waved Sumulikoski to leave the pitch.

Sumulikoski will definitely miss the final game of the EURO 2012 qualifications against Slovakia in Skopje this upcoming Tuesday but UEFA will probably add additional discipline for his unnecessary and funny reaction towards the referee.  That means he could miss the opening game/s of the qualifications for the World Cup 2014 that will begin in September of next year.  If you closely watch the video, Sumulikoski spit in the direction of the referee while he was leaving the pitch and then had some extra words for the fourth referee on the sidelines.
