Sports commentator and TV presenter Dmitry Guberniev spoke about the words of the owner of Moscow “Spartak” Leonid Fedun on refereeing in the Russian Premier League (RPL).
“This is not true. Maybe it was necessary to appoint normal managers to see the players. For example, the previous coach Selikhov did not play for a few games when Maksimenko brought him in. No need to blame the mirror! Everything is not so clear.
It is clear that Zenit has more opportunities than others. But Lukoil is also a strong company. Unfortunately, Fedun is slandering. As a shareholder of Lukoil, I would have sold the shares if times had been calmer.
And it seems to me that Fedun’s expression is strange. Fedun had to sell the team from the beginning or had to sell now so as not to be upset. Suddenly there will be some buyers, ”says the TV presenter “SE”.
Last season RPL “Spartak” took tenth place. Petersburg “Zenith” became the champion of Russia. Blue-white-blue won RPL gold for the fourth time in a row. Also in the top three were Sochi and Dynamo Moscow.
The red-whites won the Russian Cup by beating Dynamo 2:1 in the final of the tournament. This Cup was the fourth in history (1994, 1998, 2003, 2022) for Spartak and the first in 19 years.
Spartak also finished first in the Europa League group, but did not play in the playoffs due to the sanctions of the International Football Federation (FIFA) and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA).
Formerly Leonid Fedun declarationHe said his team lost 13 points last RPL season due to controversial referee decisions.
