Kozhuf vs Bashkimi Match Result: No Points Awarded Following Investigation
In a surprising turn of events, the Football Federation of Macedonia (FFM) Competition Commission has ruled that the match between Kozhuf and Bashkimi 1947, played on May 6th, 2025, in Gevgelija, will be recorded as a 0-0 draw. This decision, announced after a session held on May 16th, 2025, stems from an investigation into a contentious goal scored during the 28th round of the 2.MFL.
The controversy surrounding the goal has sparked significant debate within the Macedonian football community. Initial reports suggested a possible infringement of the rules, leading the FFM to launch a thorough review of the match footage. The Competition Commission meticulously examined video evidence, including screenshots highlighting the disputed moment, to determine the validity of the goal.
While details of the specific infraction remain somewhat unclear, the Commission's decision indicates that the goal was deemed not to have been legally scored. This unprecedented outcome means that neither Kozhuf nor Bashkimi 1947 will receive any points from this fixture, impacting their standings in the 2.MFL league table.
Impact on the League

Similarly, Bashkimi 1947 are denied the opportunity to advance their league campaign. The decision is likely to fuel further discussion about the accuracy and consistency of officiating in Macedonian football.
FFM's Commitment to Fair Play

By thoroughly investigating the incident and issuing a decisive ruling, the federation aims to maintain confidence in the fairness of the 2.MFL. This case serves as a reminder of the importance of accurate officiating and the potential consequences of questionable decisions on the field.
