Famous Russian journalist Igor Rabiner evaluated the expulsion of Spartak Moscow player Anton Zabolot from the penalty area. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He noted that the player received a red card in the second round of the Russian championship against Kaliningrad's Baltika team. Referee Sergey Karasev reviewed the incident in the 11th minute and issued the penalty.
According to Rabiner, this decision was clear and indisputable, and there could be no debate about it. He stated that there were open studs, the foot was raised high, and there was pressure in the action.
In the 58th minute, the Spartak team was left with two players and ultimately lost 0:3. This situation negatively affected the team's performance and result.
Thus, experts consider this penalty to be correct and fair.
