Fan riots overshadowed the European League match of FC Union Berlin in Malmö FF. By size, a heavy firecracker exploded in front of the mass of guest fans about 55 minutes later. Coach Urs Fischer followed what was happening on the third day of the Europa League with no clear understanding. It was not clear at first who fired the firecrackers and shells. Television footage also showed security forces taking fans out of other areas of the stadium. Turkish referee Halil Umut Miller sent the two teams to the dressing room. At that point the score was 0-0. Both teams returned to the field after about 25 minutes. The announcement indicated that the match will be stopped immediately in the event of the next incident. Visitors to Berlin outnumbered after receiving a red card in the 45th minute against Andras Schaefer. Security forces were stationed in front of the mass of guest fans, some of whom wore storm masks. The police lined up alongside the home team's supporters. It is said that just over 1,000 Union fans traveled to Malmö.
