Tver called fair the decision of the RFU FTC to disqualify Zakirov for 2 matches

The press service of Tver called fair the decision of the Control and Disciplinary Committee of the Russian Football Union (FTC RFU) to disqualify midfielder Kamil Zakirov.

The 23-year-old footballer will miss two matches of the FONBET Cup of Russia. His team lost to Amkal (0:1) in the second round match of the tournament. After the game, a video appeared on the Internet in which Zakirov insulted the chief arbiter Vladimir Seldyakov.

– The decision of the FTC is fair. The club believes that Camille behaved incorrectly. Football authorities had to make an official decision – they made it. We discussed this situation inside: in addition to the decision of the FTC, the player will be held responsible for what happened at the club. Including disciplinary sanctions will be imposed on Kamil.

It’s important to us that Camille apologized. He himself is worried about what happened. We will not appeal. We think everything is fair. Thanks to the FTC for taking into account the player’s apologies, – the Championship quotes a message from the club’s press service.

Tver plays in the third strongest division of Russian football.
