As Mura revealed on its social media, at the end of the match, an incident occurred, initiated by Arsenal. The black-and-white team received a penalty in the 85th minute, which they did not manage to execute. Before the penalty kick could take place, the dissatisfied Russians, who were evidently convinced that a serious refereeing injustice had occurred, walked off the field.
“End of the match. Unsporting behavior by the opposing team, which walked off the field after the awarded penalty for Mura because it disagreed with the referee’s decision,” wrote the club from Murska Sobota, which is now returning to its home environment.
