Serbia: Five penalty kicks in one match

As many as five penalty kicks were awarded by the referee Miloš Djordjić and all the goals in the match between Kabel and Metalac were scored from the penalty mark! Although five penalty kicks were awarded, six were shot because one penalty kick was repeated. The referee didn't skimp on showing the cards either, issuing 11 yellow cards and one red. 
First, the penalty kick was awarded in favour of the guests, and the opportunity was used by Katanić, who gave Metalac the advantage in the 22nd minute. The referee pointed to the white spot again in the 36th minute, but this time the goalkeeper of Kabel, Vukliš, was safe and stopped Katanić's shot. Kabel got revenge at the end of the first half, when after a corner, the ball hit the hand of one of Metalac's players. Djordjic immediately pointed to the penalty spot, and Karac was safe to equalize. Kabel was able to take the lead in the second half through Junior, who went one-on-one with the Metalac keeper, but failed to realize the action of his team. The turn of the results was expected in the 73rd minute. Faruk Bihorac, meanwhile, was sent off after a foul. Kabel took the lead in the 73rd minute, when Vranjanin pushed Jovanic into the penalty area, which was enough for Djordjic to point to the white spot again. Govedarica was safe from 11 meters and gives Kabel the advantage. In the 88th minute, a penalty again. Petrovic falls in the penalty area of ​​Metalac and the referee once again, for the fifth time in the match, awards a penalty kick. Govedarica takes the ball, but goalkeeper Šćekić defends the shot. However, immediately after the miss, Djordjic points to the white spot again, with the explanation that one of the players of the visiting team entered the penalty area too early. This time, Petrovic was safe from 11 meters.
