Former Ukraine defender Taras Mykhalyk shared his memories of the England-Ukraine 1-0 match at Euro 2012. The footballer recalled how the match's chief referee, Viktor Kashshai, disallowed Marko Devic's goal.
"The offside is not recorded by the head referee, but by the side referee, but he could also tell whether the ball crossed the line or not. I don't know what really happened, but it seems to me that the head referee may not have really wanted to see the goal. But that's history.
Now they would have reviewed the VAR. Perhaps they would have seen the goal, and before that they would have noticed the offside. Now it's hard to say what could have happened. But at that time, everyone was disappointed - 100%. The game could have turned 180 degrees if Devic's goal had been disallowed.
To be honest, I still have a grudge against Kashshai," Mikhalik said.
