Russian referee Sergei Karasev recalled the incident when he forgot to get a card for one of the matches of the Russian championship. “Championship.com”.
He shared that this happened during the Dynamo-Anji match that took place in Khimki.
“And I didn’t put the cards here. I have to take out a player, put it in my pocket but there is no card. I’m in another pocket, but it’s not there either. I’m in a panic. I said backup. He was ready to take me to the field. It would be funny and generally awkward,” the referee shared.
Karasev added that he immediately remembered the set of spare cards in his back pocket, took them out and used the player.
It is worth noting that Karasev is no longer serving in European Cup matches after the suspension of Russian clubs and teams.
