Former FIFA referee Igor Yegorov did not agree with the decision of the chief referee of the OLIMPBET Russian Super Cup Vladimir Moskalev regarding the unassigned penalty against Zenit.
The match took place on Saturday in St. Petersburg at the Gazprom Arena. The controversial episode happened in the 59th minute with the score 3:0 in favor of the hosts of the floor, Zinkovsky found himself on the lawn after contact with the Zenit goalkeeper.
– Was there a penalty in the moment with Zinkovsky and Odoevsky?
– What I saw was a penalty kick. I had to appoint. This is my point of view, my opinion. If I had been in charge in that match, I would have bet. Specifically, I reviewed this episode today, there should be a penalty kick here. Zinkovsky plays the ball, the goalkeeper and the defender do not touch the ball.
Zenit beat Spartak 4-0 and won the Russian Super Cup for the third time in a row and the seventh time in its history.
