Former midfielder of Spain's "Celta" club and the Russian national team Aleksandr Mostovoy shared his thoughts on refereeing in the national championship. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
These comments were related to the match between CSKA and "Krasnodar," which ended with a score of 1:1, where "the bulls" forward John Cordoba was sent off. The red card and the lack of assistance from the VAR system raised many questions among the football community.
According to Mostovoy, there are many problems in refereeing, and he repeats: 95 percent of referees have never played football, so they do not know how to resolve controversial situations. After this match, "Krasnodar" remains at the top of the tournament table.
The team led by Murad Musayev has collected 16 points, while CSKA, "Baltika," and "Lokomotiv" each have 15 points. This situation highlights the need to improve the quality of refereeing in the country's football.
For the development of football, it is important to enhance referees' qualifications and effectively use modern technologies. At the same time, the increasing competition among teams is also noticeable.
Shortcomings in refereeing should not hinder ensuring a fair and transparent football game. It is necessary to improve the refereeing system for the progress of the country's football.
