The Premier League match between Burnley and Everton was suspended on Wednesday to give Everton midfielder Abdullah Doukuri the opportunity to break the fast, as the Malian player was keen to fast despite playing an official match.
A video clip documented the moment the match stopped in the first half for a few moments so that the player, who represented the French teams in the junior stages, broke his fast after it was time for the Maghrib call to prayer.
The commentator echoed his words coinciding with the clip, "An acceptable fast, O Abdullah, an acceptable fast, Doukuri."

The postponed match of the 19th round of the English Premier League ended with Everton losing 3-2, increasing their suffering in the struggle to stay in the Premier League.
The victory represents a major boost for Burnley, who is in 18th place, after raising his score to 24 points, behind Everton (17) by one point.
It is noteworthy that the English Premier League has agreed to give some moments of rest in matches, so that Muslim players can break their fasting during the current month of Ramadan.
