Ruslan Nigmatullin, the former goalkeeper of the Russian national team, who made statements about Lokomotiv’s departure from the Russian Cup after two matches with Akron Togliatti, shared the opinion that the midfielder of the Moscow team, Dmitry Barinov, entered the match from the first minutes. Transmits words “Sports Express”.
Remember Akron won the penalty shootout. The media reported that Lokomotiv had violated the tournament rules and declared Dmitry Barinov, who had previously received two yellow cards in his matches with Spartak, for his match with Akron. He had to miss the second quarterfinal match due to a warning blast. In the event of a win for the red-greens, Akron or the Russian Football Union (RFU) could contest the result of the last match, which would then forfeit a defeat to Lokomotiv.
“If this isn’t the first time at Lokomotiv, the qualifications of the people responsible are questionable. There is a certain department that has to follow it. It is surprising for me to observe this because real professionals worked at Lokomotiv, especially before my term,” said Nigmatullin.
