Apollon's Eliel Peretz was punched and kicked out at the end of the Limassol derby. Apollon defeated A.

A. L. 1:3 and advanced to the quarterfinals of the Cypriot Cup. Peretz ran to the referee to try to understand why the red was drawn for him as well, but it didn't help. Apart from him, Andreas Panayiotou was also injured and his face was bleeding. The 27-year-old Peretz moved to Apoll on a free transfer from Maccabi Tel Aviv last summer.
