Head coach of Oleksandriya Ruslan Rotan commented on the draw of his team's match with Rukh Lviv (1-1) yesterday, which took place in the 9th round of the Ukrainian championship. It should be noted that the only goal for Rukh was scored from the penalty spot in the 6th (!) minute of the second half.

As for the penalty kick, the decision is the decision. We have to accept the result. I don't want to comment, I don't want to comment emotionally. There are people who will deal with this professionally. I believe that in terms of refereeing, our championship has become better. Everyone makes mistakes.
Therefore, experts will draw conclusions. And the right conclusions. And we have to improve. I thanked the guys for the game and said that the victory was close and we at least deserved it. But if we continue in the same vein, I think we will register these victories earlier in the game," Rotan said at the post-match press conference.
