Former Moscow "Spartak" midfielder Aleksandr Mostovoy commented on the performance of referee Vasiliy Kazartsev during the match between the "red-whites" and Makhachkala's "Dinamo" in the first round of the Russian Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
Kazartsev disallowed four goals scored against the guests and did not award a penalty in a controversial situation in favor of "Spartak." Mostovoy wrote on his Telegram channel that the referee initially appeared scared, as referees are currently working under a lot of pressure and criticism.
For this reason, they are acting cautiously in the game. The match ended with a 1:0 victory for "Spartak."
The only goal was scored by Markinyos. In the 53rd minute, Kazartsev sent off Makhachkala's defender Muhammad Azzini.
These events highlight the importance of refereeing and key moments in the game, as well as emphasize the strong competition between the teams.
