Stankovich: Xlusevich's exclusion was a serious mistake

“Spartak” team head coach Dejan Stankovich expressed his opinion regarding the dismissal of defender Daniil Xlusevich from the field. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

As the first half of the match was coming to an end, in the game between “Spartak” and “Akron,” Xlusevich received two yellow cards in quick succession. As a result, he was forced to leave the field.

Stankovich commented on this situation at a press conference, saying: “I don’t know if it’s possible to receive two warnings in such a short period in games at this level. Perhaps for someone, this is a normal situation, but I do not consider it so.

In high-level competitions, this cannot be allowed,” said the coach. This season, Daniil Xlusevich has participated in a total of four matches across all competitions, scoring once against the opponent's goal.

In the next round, “Spartak” will face the “Lokomotiv” team in the Russian championship. The coach and the team are preparing seriously for the upcoming match.
