“The referee will have problems because of such a penalty” – referee Fedotov about the match “Rostov” with “Torpedo”

Russian referee Igor Fedotov did not agree with the appointed penalty against Torpedo in the match of the 8th round of the WORLD RPL against Rostov.

The match “Torpedo” – “Rostov” was held on Monday and ended with the victory of the Rostovites with a score of 1:0. In the ninth minute added to the second half, Rostov’s defender Maxim Osipenko converted a penalty. Before that, the chief referee Yan Bobrovsky twice asked to interrupt 11-meter strikes, both of which were beaten off by Torpedo goalkeeper Yegor Baburin.

– There was no penalty against Torpedo in the game with Rostov. There was a fight between two players with the use of hands. The player of “Torpedo” and Komlichenko, the forward of “Rostov” even pulled the defender over and overwhelmed him, hit his hand on the neck. It was necessary to just continue the game, just both players fell.

As for the overkill, this is the prerogative of VAR. They say whether to interrupt or not. But then they correctly interrupted, Baburin twice left the goal line before the impact. But in general, the referee will have problems because of such a penalty in the last minute, – quotes the words of Fedotov “Championship”.

After this match, Rostov climbed to 6th place in the WORLD RPL table, gaining 16 points.
