In one of the episodes PAOK managed to score a goal, but the referee brigade canceled the goal, fixing the player Mauricio owners offside.

This decision of the main referee Georgios Cominis led to the fact that PAOK players refused to continue the match and made a fight with the players of the opponent directly on the field, which was joined by the president of the club from Thessaloniki, Ivan Savvidi.
