The canine reportedly chased the ball relentlessly every time it ran onto the pitch before it finally scampered off, as per a Reuters report.
A dog, which repeatedly invaded a football pitch in Serbia on February 5, was ‘shown’ the red card and sent off by the referee.
According to local reports, the dog interrupted a friendly soccer match between Serbia’s second-tier teams Radnicki 1923 Kragujevac and Kolubara Lazarevac, almost four times.
In a now-viral image, originally posted by Sportski žurnal, a Serbian sports daily shows referee Marko Ivkovic flashing a red card to the dog was players watched on.

Bullshit call. Hopefully the league reprimands that ref. Time to see some real punishments.
