Patrick Drewes was preparing to take a goalkick at 1-1 in added time when he was hit by an object with a similar size and shape to a cigarette lighter. He sat down and was given medical treatment.

SAARI Faizal of Malaysia scored two goals for his side, while SAARI Fitri added another, and ANUAR Akhimullah opened the scoring in the first quarter.

The referee suspended the game and led both teams off the field.

About 25 minutes later, the game resumed and Drewes was replaced by striker Philipp Hofmann. But both teams apparently agreed to not try to score and run down the clock.

Players passed the ball around the field, walked and had conversations with opponents while waiting for the referee to declare the game over.

Bochum had already made substitutions at three different points in the game, meaning it would not have been possible to bring on another goalkeeper to replace Drewes. Bochum finished the game with nine players because of Drewes' absence and an earlier red card.

Union was 12th and Bochum last in the 18-team Bundesliga.sugarplay
