Classic scandal, Vllaznia reacts: The player was seriously injured, suffered

The Vllaznia club has reacted harshly after the scandalous incident that happened in the Classic against Tirana, where an explosive device injured three Shkodran players.
In response, the Shkodran club stated that Esat Mala was seriously injured and taken to the hospital.

According to the report of the emergency doctors of the hospital, he suffered burns, hearing loss and loss of balance. Meanwhile, the other players who remained on the field of play suffered visible blurring of vision and hearing.

REACTION:

The Vllaznia Football Club expresses its deepest indignation regarding the unprecedented case that ever happened in the Albanian championship, that during today's match, Tirana-Vllaznia played at the "Roza Haxhiu" stadium in the city of Lushnja where life and the health of the football players of Vllaznia was seriously endangered.
In the 66th minute after scoring the fourth goal, when the score was fixed at 1-4 in favor of our team, while all the players of Vllaznia were celebrating inside the green field, a powerful explosive was thrown that came from the Tirana fan group, exploded strongly on the green field in front of the players' feet, knocking some of them to the ground. Unfortunately, the green field looked more like a war scene than a sports environment.
Due to this explosion, one of the players of Vllaznia, seriously injured, was forced to leave the field of play and be immediately sent to the Regional Hospital of Lushnja. According to the report of the emergency doctors of the hospital, he suffered burns, hearing loss and loss of balance. Meanwhile, the other players who remained on the field of play suffered visible blurring of vision and hearing.
After this ugly moment where the health of the red and blue footballers was injured, there could be no more football and beyond the determination of the technical staff and players to respect the leaders of the competition, their decision to continue the match remains meaningless!
The Vllaznia Football Club strongly requests the law enforcement agencies and the State Police to take all measures as soon as possible to identify and arrest the perpetrators who have committed a criminal act of the "terrorist act" type, which has endangered the life and health of players on the field.
We ask the Albanian Football Federation to immediately take all the harshest measures to condemn any behavior and action that is not related to the mission of the sport towards all those responsible.
