The football player could be punished even more severely.

Executive secretary of the FTC UAF Igor Grishchenko commented on the disqualification of the captain of Kiev Dynamo Sergei Sidorchuk for three UPL matches.

Sidorchuk in the UPL round 9 match against Shakhtar Donetsk played roughly against the Pitmen's defender Viktor Korniyok, for which he received a red card. After the examination, it became known that the defender had dropped out before the end of the year.

" But they took into account the explanations of Dynamo Kiev in relation to Sergei Sidorchuk, regarding his behavior in the previous one, about his role in the team, about the nature of this violation.

Given these explanations, the FTC decided to apply these explanations as a mitigating circumstance and made the decision to suspend Sidorchuk for three matches from the competition, plus one match conditionally "

" That is why there is a difference in disciplinary rules between just a gross game violation and a violation that leads to injury to a football player.. And such a sanction is intended to prevent the recurrence of such situations in the future, "
