While Gadzhi Gadzhiev accepted that referees have a difficult http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684, the gaffer also raised certain questions on the credibility of the match officials by lamenting the refereeing decisions in the game.
“I think the whole match was even. In some aspects of the game Zenit were superior to us and somewhere we were a little bit better. I think all the referees commit errors in the games against Zenit.” Gadzhiev was quoted as saying.
The former Krylya Sovetov coach pointed out that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mbark-Boussoufa-c25085 was kicked on his thigh in front of the match official. Anzhi had to play with ten men for some time after the former Anderlecht midfielder was forced to leave the field due to a suspected
injury.

Gadzhiev has revealed that he had a chat with the match official at the end of the match but the referee was ignorant of certain events that happened on the pitch.
“Match officials have always argued with the managers. The Referee has expressed his vision of the episode but the referee on the field does not have video and I think the official has made a mistake.” Gadzhiev went on.
The Russian national believes that Anzhi is developing ahead of schedule and the development of Anzhi will continue to flourish under the club president, Suleyman Kerimov. The gaffer has highlighted that the team needs to strengthen their attack.
“In general, I assure you, Anzhi will play better. If not this season, we will compete with the best Russian clubs next season.” The 66-year-old assured.
Anzhi Makhachkala have now lost their place to Spartak Moscow, who leapfrog Anzhi into fifth place on the league table.
