Arbitration consultant of the Ukrainian Football Association Nicola Rizzoli recognized the low pardons of the judges for the match of the 19th round of the Ukrainian Premier League between Polissyam and Dynamo Kiev (1:2).

The match was officiated by the Suddish team with Mikola Balakin, and the VAR referee was Denis Schurman. After the game, there were a number of super-emotional episodes that resonated among clubs and patients.

According to Rizzoli, one of the main benefits was the scoring of the goal of the Zhytomyr resident Lyndon Emerllahu. The ball was disallowed due to a foul on the start of the attack against Volodymyr Brazhko, but the expert said that VAR could not stand up..

" This is a difficult moment, otherwise the decision to be guilty of forfeiting the referee on the field. There was no scope for VAR review,” Rizzoli explained..

Also, the committee of referees respects the award of a penalty at the Dynamo goal for the handball of the defender Maxim Korobov. According to the expert, the ball is unwilling to change its trajectory, and the football player is unable to make contact.

Another contentious moment was the foul of Khristian Bilovar against Emerllahu. Rizzoli stated that these Dynamo players were posing a threat to their opponent’s insecurity and would be punished with a straight red card.

Recently, the referees did not correctly award a penalty at the Polissya goal after winger Kiyan Nazar Voloshin fell in the penalty area.

After the scandalous match, Polissian President Gennady Butkevich returned to the UAF to check the referees on a polygraph and to publicize the recordings of VAR negotiations. The Kerivnitsvo Association has launched an investigation service for judicial integrity.

UAF President Andriy Shevchenko also expressed dissatisfaction with the arbitration in the 19th round of the championship. After the scandal, Balakin and Schurman did not give up their role in the upcoming round of the UPL.

In the tournament table, Poliss is in third place, while Dynamo moved one position lower. In the upcoming round, the Zhytomyrians will play against Krivbas, and the Kiyans will fight against Obolonya.
