Former FIFA referee Miroslav Stupar Moment revealed who he considers to be the three best in the refereeing corps of Ukraine in 2024.
«In my opinion, Nikolai Balakin, Vitaly Romanov, and Viktor Kopiievsky are ahead. These are experienced referees who have faced challenges in their careers, but they have worked well on correcting their mistakes and demonstrate a high level of officiating.
I would also note the progress of Dmitry Panchishin. It is no coincidence that these referees are often assigned to officiate matches on the international stage.
Although overall, the level of officiating in UPL matches leaves much to be desired,» Stupar said.
