The start of the Macedonian football season was marked by a brutal incident. During the weekend matches between the "Vardar" and "Pelister" clubs, one fan lost his hand when the police tried to control the spectators. The match between these teams is called the "Eternal Macedonian Derby" and always attracts ultra supporters from both sides, who sometimes cause disturbances. During the added time of the match, the police decided to control the "Vardar" club fans. This led to clashes between the police and football fans. It is reported that the police threw a grenade into the crowd of fans, which one of the spectators tried to lift. It was at that moment the grenade exploded, causing severe injuries to his hand. "Vardar" won the match 1:0, but after the match the winning coach Sergejus Andrejevas stated that "victory means nothing when a fan loses his hand." Not recommended for those with weak nerves:
