"Was it a foul on Hrysiou? We saw it on our tablet - it seemed to be a penalty, but we need to watch the broadcast from different cameras, and then draw some conclusions. But it was, it was not - the referee decides. We had to play on. We, of course, counted on VAR somewhere, but this is a game, there is trust in the referees who were on VAR. Therefore, there was no penalty," Shyshchenko was quoted as saying by Obolon's official website.
