Kechinov: Zabolotny's red card put the team in a difficult situation

Valeriy Kechinov, a former midfielder of Moscow's "Spartak" team, commented on the expulsion of "red-whites" striker Anton Zabolotniy during the match against "Baltika." This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

As a result of the foul, Zabolotniy was forced to leave the field in the eighth minute after he kicked the opponent's ankle. According to Kechinov, even though the game was still ongoing in the 11th minute and there was a lot of motivation, such a foul cannot be committed.

He stated: “Such actions are punished with a red card. It put Zabolotniy's team in a difficult situation.”

The specialist also mentioned that with Markinyos leaving the field in the second half, the chances of "Spartak" losing increased. As a result, "Baltika" scored three goals and defeated the Moscow team.

In this match, the "Spartak" team was unable to fully showcase their opportunities and had a tough time.
