During yesterday's Croatian league match an unusual moment was recorded. At the end of the game, Zagreb's "Dinamo" player Bruno Petkovičius tried to convert a penalty kick, but the referee showed him a second yellow card and sent him off the field. Such a penalty was given to the player because, in the referee's opinion, he was running too slowly towards the ball during the penalty kick. "Dinamo" managed to secure a victory, defeating the "Istra 1961" team with a score of 2:0.
