The head coach of Rubin Kazan, Leonid Slutskiy, gave advice to the former football player of the Russian national team Roman Shirokov, who beat the referee Nikita Danchenkov during the match of the amateur teams. His words are quoted by Sport24.
The specialist said that he treats Shirokov with sympathy, so it is difficult for him to condemn the player. “In general, I think that Shirokov does not need to participate in this kind of competition. He is a very high level footballer. He needs to play somewhere among the veterans, ”Slutsky added. He stressed that Shirokov probably regretted what he had done.
