Former FIFA referee Alexei Nikolaev on the air of MATCH PRIME reacted to the words of the head coach of Krasnodar Murad Mousaev that the chief referee of the match between the 24th round of MIR RPL and Zenit, Sergei Ivanov, acted inconsistently.
The meeting of the 24th round took place on Saturday in Krasnodar and ended with a voluntary victory for Zenit with a score of 2:1. Musaev received a yellow card at the end of the match. After the match, the Bulls coach accused Ivanov of making inconsistent decisions and also noted that the referee “changed shoes” during the match in terms of the acceptable severity of martial arts.
— Concerning “changed shoes”. Arguably, if the referee finds that the level of martial arts he provided is overwhelming, then he can tone it down a bit and put it somewhere on the whistle and disciplinary cards, as was the case in the second half of this match. It’s just an art – to feel this line that football players can cross,” Nikolaev said on the air of the program “The Rules of the Game” on the MATCH PREMIER TV channel.
