Referee expert, ex-FIFA referee Miroslav Stupar gave his assessment of the refereeing of Dmitry Panchishin in the recent match of the 12th round of the Ukrainian Championship between Dynamo Kyiv and Oleksandriya (3:1).
- Miroslav Ivanovich, please comment on the episode in the 70th minute of the match, when Dynamo player Viktor Tsygankov fell in Oleksandria's penalty area and received a warning for simulation.
- Of course, it's a penalty, that's understandable. But at this moment, the referee not only had to appoint a 11-meter penalty, but also show a yellow card to Oleksandria defender Vladislav Baboglo, who frankly grabbed Tsygankov by the T-shirt.
Match referee Dmitry Panchishin considered that there was a simulation by Tsygankov. But the simulation happens when the players fall forward, "dive". And there was an obvious violation. The referee was in a comfortable position and had to see everything. Why he made such a decision - you need to ask him.
- A few minutes later, another controversial moment happened in Oleksandriya's penalty area, this time with the participation of Vladislav Vanat. What do you think about this episode?
- Vanat received a yellow card in the 71st minute, and after four minutes in the fight against Tsurikov he feigned. Just in this episode, the player "dived". Vanat should have been shown a second yellow card and removed from the field. Two blunders in one match.
The duel was fundamental, the rivals fought for getting into the top three. But they trusted an inexperienced referee to judge. Yes, Panchishin is tall and slender, but this does not help referee important matches. Let Luciano Lucci be in charge of such things.
- What is the reason for the mistakes of the referee Dmitry Panchishin in the match "Dynamo" - "Alexandria"?
- Of course, the lack of experience affected. But what is the reason for such decisions - it's hard for me to say. I would not say that the arbiter was blocked by other players in these episodes. Panchishin chose the right position. During the match, he moved well, which indicates his physical fitness. But so far he has not been able to correctly assess the situation.
