Lucescu criticized the referees of the Besiktas match

The head coach of Dynamo Kyiv believes that the referee’s decision influenced the outcome of the match.

Dynamo dominated the match against Besiktas, but the referee’s decision did not allow them to win the match. This is what Mircea Lucescu said after the first match-qualification of the Conference League.

After the match, the head coach of the Kyiv club expressed dissatisfaction with the canceled goal of Alexander Karavaev at the beginning of the second half and the assigned penalty against the Kiev team.

However, despite losing a nominally home match, the specialist believes that the “white-blue” can still fight for the group stage of the competition.

“Someone will say that I cling to the refereeing. But with these mistakes, we are champions of canceled goals. And at Benfica last season, they also canceled … Draw that line, rewind a minute of the game to consider some kind of offside, In the penalty kick episode, when the ball after a close-range shot changed the direction of flight and the Besiktas player’s head hit the pressed hand of Popov, the referees also decided in favor of our opponent

In general, the game is good on our part, if we exclude those mistakes, which, unfortunately, are repeated. This is what upsets me the most. I talk about it, but they still exist … Both our performance and the opponent had a good game, but we dominated, had a good chance for scoring. But at these stages, like a canceled goal, it feels like your wings have been clipped, and it’s very difficult to get back into the game. We did it, well done guys, but I am dissatisfied with the result, as well as our mistakes.

We still have a chance. Today we played well against a strong opponent who, technically and physically, is probably better than us, but we played well against them because of the organization of the game, dedication, unity. We will try to play the same way in Istanbul, we had positive moments, but we have to eliminate the mistakes we made in the defensive game and lead to the conceded goals. We must play our game, fight our opponent with our collective game, and believe that we can achieve the desired result.

It is difficult to ask the fans, when the other team is playing, to support it in the same way as themselves. Of course, we felt the support, maybe we wanted to feel it a little bit, but at the same time it’s sad that we didn’t thank the fans with a good result. It was a good game, but not the result… There is still a second match, I hope that we will play well, win and return to Bucharest to play the matches of the group stage of the Conference League,” Lucescu was quoted as saying says Dinamo’s official website.

Recall that Dynamo in a dramatic match lost to Besiktas in the selection for the Conference League.
