Greece’s soccer league suspended over gun incident at recent match

-

Greece indefinite­ly suspended its soccer league on Monday, a day after the gun-toting owner of PAOK Thessaloni­ki marched onto the field following a disputed goal in a match.

FIFA urged Greek authoritie­s to take swift action against PAOK owner Ivan Savvidis or face a possible suspension.

Ivan Savvidis walked onto the field twice accompanie­d by bodyguards, and appeared to be carrying a pistol in a holster around his waist. He made no move to use the weapon at any time.
