Former referee Ilya Oblomov believes that Spartak forward Alexander Sobolev feigned being on the lawn in the Dynamo penalty area, but judges rarely give yellow cards for such episodes.
On Saturday, Spartak played a draw with Dynamo with a score of 3:3. Sobolev became the author of a double and scored one goal into his own net. After the game, the striker was recognized as the best player of the match.
– There was no penalty, Sobolev “dived”. Yellow for simulation is not given because there was minimal contact. Judges at such moments rarely give yellow cards, Oblomov told RB Sport.
Spartak is third in the RPL standings with 42 points. Dynamo (36) is sixth.
