Xanthi remained from the 37th minute of the game with Veria in the Group A derby for the 32nd game of the 10-player Super League 2.
Ali Baba for no apparent reason pushed and punched Petavrakis, who fell to the ground, whereupon the referee rushed and without hesitation showed him his red card and sent him off.
This irritated the Nigerian striker and quickly created tension between players from the two teams, with the calmer ones rushing to calm the mood.
