In the 12th minute, Akhmat was left with ten men due to the removal of Marat Bystrov, and in the 96th minute they also lost Andrey Semenov, Milan Gayich was sent off from CSKA in stoppage time of the first half.

At the end of the first half, referee Vladislav Bezborodov awarded a penalty to CSKA for Gayich’s foul and showed him a yellow card. Igor Akinfeev parried the blow, but after that the referee watched a repeat of the Serb’s violation and changed the decision, removing Gayich and allowing Akhmat to beat the 11-meter kick, which was converted by Mohamed Konate.

In the match “Akhmat” – CSKA scored four penalties in half

CSKA Communications Director Kirill Breido declared “Match TV” that the club will apply to the expert referee commission (ESK RFU) in connection with the red card shown to Gayich.

In the Communications Service of the RFU declaredthat during the match there were problems with communication between the referees in the field and the VAR center in Moscow, but all high-profile episodes “will be carefully studied and evaluated by the refereeing department and the expert refereeing commission.”

How notes Opta Sports, Bezborodov repeated the record of the championships of Russia, appointing five penalties. Valentin Ivanov in 1999 delivered the same number of penalty kicks in the match “Rotor” – “Chernomorets”, but only three were realized.

CSKA in the third round on August 5 will host Lokomotiv, Akhmat will play away with Sochi on August 6.
