MOSCOW, March 20, Pavel Levkovich. Head coach of the Kazan football club Rubin «Leonid Slutsky said that it is ridiculous to discuss the work of the refereeing team in the match of the 22nd round of the Russian Premier League (RPL) with CSKA Moscow, given the defeat with a score of 1:6. The meeting took place on Sunday in Moscow. Rubin conceded 4 goals in the first 27 minutes. Two players «Rubin» during the meeting were removed from the field, receiving two yellow cards. As part of CSKA, a hat-trick was scored by Yusuf Yazici. Four goals of CSKA were counted after an additional check by the judges on the VAR system, another goal of the army team was canceled after watching the video replay. «we managed to catch the game, it would have been easier. We conceded two goals quickly and CSKA played on a large reserve of skill. The sending off of Alexander Lomovitsky did not play a key role, but the opportunity for resistance after this sending off was killed. We wanted to replace him, we felt that Lomovitsky can be removed, but they didn’t have time. Removal on the merits. Today was a real indicator of the level between the teams, «Slutsky said at a press conference. After the match of the 21st round of the Russian Championship between Rubin and Rostov (2: 1 in favor of the Rostovites) Slutsky criticized the work of the chief referee of the meeting, Vitaly Meshkov, saying that the referee «did everything he wanted» and «spit in the face of everyone who came to the stadium», and also called the actions of the judge «murder». The Ethics Committee of the Russian Football Union (RFU) at a meeting on March 24 will consider Slutsky's criticism of Meshkov.
