MOSCOW, March 17 Spartak» in the match of the 21st round of the championship of Russia with «Krasnodar», but surely did not count two goals of the «red-white», according to the decision of the expert-judging commission under the president of the Russian Football Union (ESK RFU). «Spartak» lost on Sunday «Krasnodar» with a score of 1:2. Kukulyak canceled two goals of Spartak — in the 11th minute due to offside and in the 56th minute due to handball. At the 84th minute, a penalty kick was awarded to the Muscovites, as a result, Krasnodar scored the winning goal. Muscovites appealed to the RFU ESC with a request to evaluate the work of the referee Kukulyak. «The referee mistakenly assigned a 11-meter kick to the Spartak team's goal. The player of the defending Spartak team, Christopher Martins, when trying to play the ball, did not reach him, and the attacking player of the team «Krasnodar» Eduard Spertsyan, who was trying to shoot at goal, made contact with the opponent's foot in passing at the moment when it was already on the lawn. According to the majority of members of the ESC, there was no violation of the rules of the game by the Spartak team player, and the referee should have continued the game,» the message on the official website of the RFU says. «The referee correctly canceled the goal of the Krasnodar team, fixing the offside position after checking the VAR of this episode at the 11th minute of the match. The referee correctly canceled the goal of the team «Krasnodar» after checking the VAR at the 56th minute of the match, «the message says. Also, the RFU ESC considered complaints about the quality of refereeing from CSKA Moscow (in the episode with a non-assignment of a penalty against the capital's «Locomotive» in the 52nd minute of the match) and St. Petersburg «Zenith» (in the episode with a non-assignment of a penalty against the Samara «Wings of the Soviets» in the 9th minute of the match). The actions of the arbitrators were recognized as correct.
