Player subbed after 13 seconds in Estonian Premier League match

An Estonian Premier League match was halted after 13 seconds while the away side substituted an uninjured player. Lauri Suup, 16, was brought off the field by Nomme Kalju FC shortly after the referee started the match. The rules in Estonia state each side must start with at least two homegrown players, which may explain the early removal of Suup. Many of Kalju’s players are currently unavailable because they are self-isolating having tested positive for Covid-19.
