The 25-year-old Luka Lazarevich, who gained notoriety during the qualifying match at the World Cup of Europe-2016 between Russia and Montenegro (Podgorica, March 27), will pay 750 euros for his deed and will be in prison for 3.5 months. Goalkeeper of the Russian team Igor Akinfeev, fortunately, was not affected as much as it seemed at first. He received a neck burn with an abandoned fireman and was taken to a hospital.
Recall that, although the match was broken, by decision of the judges Montenegro received a technical defeat in it. The incident occurred at the very beginning of the match, but, despite this event, the game was continued. Already in the second half it became clear that the match would not take place because of the extremely negative reaction of the fans of both sides to the situation: the behavior in the stands became clearly menacing.
Luka Lazarevich does not recognize his act as intentional. He himself came to the police and publicly apologized for the situation he provoked.
On April 28, the Montenegrin court sent a grief-fan to the verdict.
