Metalist 1925 on its official website made a statement in response to the publication of Dynamo, in which the referees were called, which allowed an effective victory in the last match.

“Before this important fight in the fight for the most important place, our club pays respect to the need to ensure a fair and objective trial.

We have confirmed that any public assessments of the work of referees in advance matches create additional tension around the game and do not support the highly praised decision on the field.

Every new match cannot be driven back to the controversial episodes of previous fights, and the opportunity for referees to retire from their work is unforeseen and fair.

Whether you enter into arbitration, regardless of its form, remember the basic principle of football: the result can be determined including on the field.

As the season progressed, most teams faced episodes in which judicial decisions affected the progress and results of matches. Our team was not excluded. Let us remember that this nutrition will require systemic work and analysis.

FC Metalist 1925 consistently stands for equal thinking for all participants in the championship, the vision of the decision is based on the sporting principle.

We are confident that the upcoming match will be fought fairly, and all decisions of the referees will be objective and unprejudiced,” said the Kharkiv club’s statement.

Guess what, the match Metalist 1925 - Dynamo Kiev will be on Saturday, 11th quarter, at 15:30.
