Katarina Sreckovic PHOTOS: Red Star Belgrade Soccer Reporter Nearly Axed, Deemed "Too Attractive!" [WATCH]

Being banned from a soccer match is a usual occurrence, especially during a heated match. But it's very surprising when the players state they cannot concentrate because someone is too "beautiful."
