Two-time Russian football champion Vladimir Bystrov said that the first half of the match of the 23rd round of the WORLD RPL between Torpedo and Spartak was more like pornography than football.
“Spartak” in the first half scored two unanswered goals against the “black and white”. The chief referee of the match, Pavel Shadykhanov, appointed three 11-meter kicks to the gates of the car factory, two of which Keita Balde and Ruslan Litvinov failed to convert.
– First time? Fabulous. This is more like not football, but like pornography using VAR. “Spartak” plays, and “Torpedo” suffers. Avtozavodtsev players do not correspond to the RPL level. Instead of Duarte, put me against Torpedo, at the age of 39 I could hold them back. Baburin is fine, he dragged two penalties.
– One – by the power of thought.
“But he dragged it anyway. And what do Torpedo defenders do on the field? Samsonov with a straight leg flies into the supporting leg of the opponent. I understand the emotions of the distant Torpedo coach Josep Clotet. For such a penalty, I would retire myself. I would have jumped over the fence with the help of somersaults. After the first half, the second is no longer needed, – Bystrov said on the air of MATCH PRIME.
