Head coach of CSKA Vladimir Fedotov after the match of the 26th round, MIR RPL with Baltika said that the referees would not have counted the team’s goal against the Kaliningraders if they had doubts.
Sunday’s meeting in Kaliningrad ended with a victory for the home team with a score of 3:1. The Army team scored a goal in second half stoppage time; head referee Ian Bobrovsky counted the ball after a prompt from the video assistant referee (VAR) system.
– Of course, we were not preparing for defeat and we had good conditions to open the score even though we did not take advantage of our opportunity in the first half. It was a 100% moment, the game probably would have taken on a different color. This penalty, or rather this stupid penalty, put us in uncomfortable conditions, and we had to take risks.
— Did your position allow you to know if Glebov had scored a goal?
– With ours, of course not. We also watched the video. I think only a special replay can determine that. You saw that in the “classico”, not a single replay gave a clear answer as to whether the ball had crossed the line. If there were doubts, then, naturally, the goal would not have been counted. The referees saw that the ball crossed the goal line. I think that was the case,” reports the correspondent.
Baltika left the relegation zone and the play-offs, occupying 12th place (26 points). In the next round, the Kaliningrad club will go to the Urals.
