The UAF Referees Committee has appointed officials for the match of the 8th round of the Ukrainian Championship between Dynamo Kyiv and Metalist Kharkiv.
It is reported that the main referee of the fight will be Roman Blavatsky. At the matches of the Ukrainian Premier League, Blavatsky began work in November 2020. Before that, the referee officiated the matches of the second league and the first league.
Interestingly, the paths of Roman Blavatsky and Dynamo have not yet crossed. The referee managed to referee only 7 UPL matches. This season, the Lviv resident officiated the match of the 5th round of the UPL between Chornomorets and Oleksandriya (1:2).
Blavatsky worked at Metalist's matches in the First League last season: the victories of Kharkiv over Kryvbas (5:0) and Alliance (2:0).
