At the end of the match the selector, Blagoja Milevski he earned a red card, and at the press conference he emphasized that he did not understand why he was sent off.

"Congratulations to the boys for the desire they showed, as well as for the tactical discipline. I don't understand why I got the red card, I left my area and it's a yellow card. "The chief judge had no problems, the decision was made by the fourth," said Milevski.
