Orenburg football player accused referees of not awarding a penalty

Orenburg team footballer Maksim Saveliev shared his thoughts about the controversial situation that occurred in the match against Moscow Dinamo. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to him, at one moment in the game, the opposing defender touched his eye with his fingers inside the penalty area, and a penalty should have been awarded. However, the referees did not review this incident and did not award a penalty.

Saveliev emphasized that he received a painful blow and fell down, but the referees could not identify the foul. He raised his question: why did the referees not see the incident where his eye was touched by fingers inside the penalty area?

According to him, this is clearly a penalty. Currently, the team led by Vladimir Slishkovich is in 13th place in the championship table with 7 points after 9 rounds.

This result provides an opportunity for the team to achieve better outcomes in upcoming matches. The player and the team's fans are awaiting a review of the referees' decisions.
