Team President Invades Pitch With Gun In Greece


PAOK Salonika president invades pitch
Greek Super League has been suspended indefinitely after PAOK Salonika's president invaded the field of play with a gun during a match on Sunday.
Ivan Savvidis had a gun in a hip holster made an attempt to confront the referee after his side had a late goal ruled out for offside against AEK Athens. AEK's players left the pitch concerned for their safety and did not return.
The match was officially abandoned two hours later and local police are seeking Savvidis to arrest him. Deputy sports minister Giorgos Vasiliadis announced the abandonment of all top-flight matches on Monday after a meeting with Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras.
"It won't start again unless there is a clear framework, agreed by all, to move forward with conditions and rules," he added.
