The latter left the hall in the sixth minute of the second quarter, when the score was 28 to 21 in favor of DRB Staouéli, the climate was very tense. Referring to the regulations, the technical commission chaired by international referee Chachoua Noureddine, took the decision to inflict a lost match by penalty on MC Alger.
