"Game still in progress" but no reconnect button

The game crashed like it always does. (shame on you, Riot)

But this time, I am seeing "Game still in Progress" and there is no reconnect button.

I can't even reconnect. What the hell am I supposed to do?

you lose me lp, and you're prolly gonna give me penalty afking? lol

riot seriously. this is 2017. Your game is now what 7 years old? and you can't even keep a game alive?

The game crashes and now I can't even reopen the client?

I have million other programs that work just fine. league client is the only thing that I ever have issues with.

This is still the only known fix. Just had this last match. Ridiculous.

Had this issue (which is apparently still a thing after two years) in a TFT ranked game. Finished 7th. Lost 43 LP. I feel great..

The game client starts "idle (using 0% CPU resources)" - for some reason. To restart it - you have to go with the good old Ctrl +Shift + ESC (which opens Task manager) close it ("End task" by right clicking the game client - as other mentioned above) - then you'll get the option to "reconnect" again.
