CENTRAL referee Lebalang Mokete had to be escorted out of the stadium by security officers during his CAF Confederations Cup assignment for the match between Zambian side, Napsa Stars and Kenyan visitors, Gor Mahia in Lusaka on Sunday.
Miffed by Mokete’s decision to award Napsa Stars a penalty in the dying minutes of the game, Gor Mahia players attempted to assault Mokete. Naspers, who were trailing by 1-2 at the time, converted the spot kick resulting in the match ending in a 2-2 draw. Napsa Stars then proceeded to the next stage on a 3-2 aggregate.
