The head coach of Spartak Guillermo Abascal refused to communicate with reporters after the match of the 27th round of the MIR RPL with Khimki near Moscow.

The meeting at the stadium “Khimki Arena” ended with the score 1:1. On 23 minutes, the home side took the lead after Reziuan Mirzov’s accurate free-kick. The return ball was scored by Alexander Sobolev in the 56th minute. In the 46th minute, Spartak midfielder Daniil Denisov was sent off the field, earning two yellow cards.

“I want to ask your forgiveness. I respect your work, but too many things have happened lately. Today I will not answer your questions. I respect you. I hope you respect me.

Today I will not answer any question. Because if I answer, I just won’t be able to look myself in the eye, ”the Match TV website quotes the coach as saying.

The head of the press service of Spartak, Dmitry Zelenov, commented on the refusal of the head coach of the Red-Whites to give a detailed answer to journalists’ questions.

— I have nothing to add to the words of the head coach. He said what he wanted to say, I’m not his interpreter. There is a translator who translated everything as it is.

Is it related to refereeing? Possibly, Zelenov added.

In the standings, Spartak (50 points) is in fourth place, Khimki (18) is in 15th place.
