Referee raises two fingers of each hand to mark extra time instead of signaling Rabaa salute

Referee Mohamed Ali Shatta, known as Dalas, flashed an unusual hand signal to avoid making the Rabaa al-Adaweya salute while refereeing a match between Gouna and Military Production clubs on Monday.
 
Shatta raised two fingers of each hand to mark a four-minute extra time. 
 
After the match, Shatta said the decision was made bearing in mind that the four-fingered salute became a crime according to law.
 
The match ended with a 1-0 victory for Gouna.
