Former midfielder, Zenit Saint Petersburg and Russian national team player Vladislav Radimov commented on the recent controversy. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The incident occurred during the match between Krasnodar and Akhmat. Eduard Spertsyan encouraged Usman Ndong to break the rules during the game.
After the match, Ndong claimed that Spertsyan used racist language towards him. However, investigations revealed that Spertsyan did insult him, but the words were not of a racist nature.
Vladislav Radimov expressed disbelief that Spertsyan would use such words and stated that the words were misunderstood or there were other reasons. Spertsyan was fined 150,000 rubles, while Ndong was suspended for two matches, one of which is conditional.
This incident attracted significant attention among football teams and fans.
