Spartak head coach Abaskal apologized for pushing Akhmat player Berisha
Spartak head coach Guillermo Abascal commented on the push of Akhmat player Bernard Berisha in the match of the 17th round of the Russian Premier League (1:2), held in Grozny. His words are quoted on the website of the Moscow club.
“I reacted because at that moment there was an aggressive gesture towards me. I think any normal person would react in some way to protect themselves. This is a common reaction,” he said. At the same time, Abascal added that the situation does not look good on football and apologized.
In the 35th minute of the meeting on December 3, Berishi made an assist to Hamid Agalarov, who opened the scoring. After that, the author of the pass ran to the Spartak bench and jumped with both feet towards Abascal. The Spaniard responded by grabbing the footballer with both hands and throwing him onto the lawn.
The main referee of the meeting, Evgeniy Kukulyak, sent Abaskal off, and Berisha was punished with a warning. After this, a conflict arose between the teams.
