During the Friday evening matches of the twenty-eighth round of the German "Bundesliga" championship, the players of Gelzenkirchen's "Schalke" showed superiority over Hamburg's "St. Pauli" team away, but the match had to be ended earlier.
In a fierce encounter, the guests took the lead 0-2 after goals from Raul and young Julian Draxler, but with two minutes left until the end of the second half, a full plastic beer glass thrown from the stands hit the linesman in the back.
For safety reasons, referee Deniz Aytekin halted the match, the fate of which will be decided by the country's football federation in the coming days.
"Schalke" is in tenth place in the league table, while "St. Pauli" teeters on the edge of relegation to a lower division.
Hamburg's "St. Pauli" 0 - 2 Gelzenkirchen's "Schalke" (halted) 26' [0 - 1] Raul 67' [0 - 2] J. Draxler 68' J. Kalla sent off ("St. Pauli") 79' F. Bartels sent off ("St. Pauli")
