Robin Tranberg in an interview with Discovery Plus revealed what led to the incident.

"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"

"At the end of the first half, Varberg's Simon Karlsson Adjei accounted for a huge miss".

"Robin Tranberg played forward the striker who shot high over on a completely wide-open goal - but in the second half, he took revenge".
