As a result Yarmolenko will miss the game against FC Shakhtar Donetsk.
Was referee right? Let’s have a look at experts’ opinions.
Yevhen LEVCHENKO (ex-Ukraine international)
- Goalkeeper touched Yarmolenko, but I’m not sure every referee would have awarded penalty in that episode. As for the yellow card, it’s not fair.
Myroslav STUPAR (former FIFA referee)
- Shvetsov is wrong. There was neither penalty nor gamesmanship. I suppose Dynamo will lodge an appeal. Yellow cards can be cancelled.
Olexandr ISHCHENKO (Dynamo football school director)
- As for Yarmolenko’s “gamesmanship”, Shvetsov should have finished his career after well-known match. This yellow card must be cancelled.
