Referee Igor Fedotov appreciated the controversial episode that occurred during the match RPL between Zenit and Krylia Sovetov (3:1).
Let’s immediately talk about the moment with Rakhmanovich’s blow to Claudinho’s face in the 42nd minute: for Chistyakov this is not a foul at all. But this cannot be! Some write that there was a touch from behind. Even if this were the case, it is still a foul, which should only be considered one way: whether it is a red card or not. For me this is an expulsion: a player runs to kill another, he doesn’t even need the ball. Rakhmanovich bent his elbow and held it out like a weapon. Yes, you can break your jaw. And how can such a judgment be justified?
