Midfielder Nasiru Moro was sent off for headbutting an opponent in OSK's 3-0 defeat against Varberg in Sweden

In the 25th minute hot situation occurred that would change the conditions for the rest of the match.

Varberg's Robin Tranberg was fouled by Johan Martensson, which led to a fight between Tranberg and OSK midfielder Nasiru Moro. When Tranberg pushed Moro in the chest, the latter responded by handing out a hard skull that lowered Tranberg to the ground.

Referee Glenn Nyberg did not hesitate and handed out a direct red card to the Ghanaian midfielder. Tranberg received a yellow card for pushing Moro and talked about the incident at half time.

"He shoots the ball at me after blowing. I do not think it is conscious but you fall, get a little hurt, get frustrated, are up and push a little. Then he puts his head against my chin, clear red," says Tranberg to Discovery Plus.

Varberg won 3-0 and has 26 points in eighth place while Orebro is second to last with 13 points in the Allsvenskan.
