“As I could see on the small monitor that I had on the bench, this is not a penalty. I don’t understand how the referees at VAR didn’t see this and didn’t do anything. «I don't think it's normal. In the locker room, the player also told me that there was nothing, that he didn't touch him. It's not the first time, but I don't want to underestimate the victory of CSKA. Congratulations to their players, coaches, they fought and deserved to win , but when things like this happen, it's hard,» the coach added.
