"Dynamo" - "Lviv": the referee's analysis of the match

In the comments of 1927.kiev.ua, the well-known former referee Myroslav Stupar evaluated the refereeing in the match of the 4th round of the championship of Ukraine "Dynamo" - FC "Lviv".

— Oleksandr Omelchenko interpreted everything as he understood. He is a soft judge, he did not spoil the game, the players were a little offended, but that is their business. The biggest problem for our judges is disciplinary action. Some violations they do not see, for others they do not give punishment. This is the level of refereeing we have. For example, Oleksiy Derevinsky judged "Dnipro-1" - "Metalist-1925". There, the players are pinching each other, fighting - he doesn't see it. FIFA referee Mykola Balakin in the Shakhtar - Chornomorets match initially issued yellow cards incorrectly, in the episode with Traore there was no violation, and he whistled for a foul. Balakin has a superior attitude towards players...

No one works with arbitrators. Lucci just gets money in Italy, and Pavelko works for himself, not for Ukrainian football. The first and second leagues survive as best they can, the referees develop themselves. How can you train a good referee when there are no fees for the first and second leagues? How to find young talent? Judges must undergo training and prove themselves in judging, the expert said.
