Tikhonov called for sending Opeikina, who refereed the First League match, to Makhachkala
The head coach of the Krasnoyarsk “Yenisey” Andrei Tikhonov criticized the work of the chief referee of the meeting Vera Opeikina in the match of the 28th round of the Melbet First League with “SKA-Khabarovsk”. His words are quoted by “Championship”.
The specialist was outraged that a woman was appointed to the match and called for her to be sent to Makhachkala. “Let him train there. The RPL referee sent me a photo and said that there was no penalty. There, the attacker steps on the defender’s foot,” Tikhonov said.
According to the coach, Opeikina needs to train at matches involving women and children. “It is not normal! Here the men struggle and just don’t understand some points,” the coach said.
The meeting took place on Saturday, April 20, and ended with a score of 3:0 in favor of SKA-Khabarovsk. The Far Eastern club scored the first goal from the penalty spot.
