Omonia manager Henning Berg sent off following draw against Apollon
On September 12, 2026, Omonia Nicosia played to a 0-0 draw against Apollon at the GSP Stadium in Cyprus. Following the conclusion of the match, Omonia manager Henning Berg approached referee Kyriakos Athanasiou to protest decisions made during the game, resulting in the referee issuing a red card to the Norwegian coach.
Berg expressed frustration over the sending-off, stating it was only the second time he had been expelled in his twenty-year career. Despite the result, the manager praised his team's defensive discipline and overall control of the match, though he noted a need for improved efficiency in the final third of the pitch. As a direct consequence of the red card, Berg is suspended and will be absent from the touchline for Omonia's next two league matches against Krasava ENY Ypsonas and Karmiotissa.
