The Conference League game between Partizan Belgrade and 1. FC Köln had to be interrupted twice in the first half.
After the use of pyrotechnics by the Serbian fans, referee Roi Reinshreiber felt compelled to take this measure. Only when the wafts of fog in the stadium had cleared did the referee start the game again.
During the second forced break after half an hour, the referee sent the pros off the field for a few minutes. The stoppage time of the first half was ten minutes.
