Udinese 2 - 1 Dinamo Zagreb
UEFA Cup 2008 - 2009 group stage · 2008-12-03 Referee: Alon Yefet

law and order

Yefet

Not a complicated match for the Israeli referee. Only two yellow cards, avoidable if Yefet would have wanted. His assistants made some mistakes with offside and throw-ins but nothing worthy of attention.

Match

Udinese scored in the fifth minute and buried Dinamo's dream about still being the next spring in European football after 30 and more years. Dinamo have a team for Seria B and with this team they can dream about spring for the next 30 years.

Fans

Dinamo fans have a reputation as being one of the worst in Europe, and because of them, the club has had to pay many Euros for the UEFA cash box. This was the second time in the last ten years. In 1995 they were kicked out of the competition for one year because of the fan's behaviour. If Yefet had more courage and if he had followed the UEFA laws, he would have ended the match and Dinamo's chance of a next year in Europe.
