Former FIFA referee and now authoritative expert Myroslav Stupar assessed the actions of “Dynamo” defender Vladislav Dubinchak in the 17th minute of the match against “Ferencváros” in the Europa League, which led to his sending off.
Myroslav Stupar— The referee interpreted his actions as a threat of injury to the opponent, so the red card was justified. It’s surprising that the referee chose to use VAR, given that the foul was obvious.
I still don’t understand why Dubinchak made that tackle, as there was no direct threat to the Dynamo goal. And the guest player was very lucky that his leg was in a non-supporting phase, otherwise the injury would have been terrible.
These actions of Dubinchak, which can only be called senseless, ultimately led to a crushing defeat of the Kyiv team in Hamburg in a match where they were expected to earn points,” said Stupar.
