Jan Durica has complained about the quality of the field and has blamed Gheorghe Bucur for scoring the winning goal from an offside position after losing against Lokomotiv Moscow
Lokomotiv Moscow defender, Jan Durica, was not happy with some of the decisions made by the match official during their 1-0 defeat against Kuban Krasnodar at Lokomotiv stadium (Moscow) on Saturday.
The 30-year-old stopper has defended his side’s latest defeat in the Russian Premier League against the Krasnodar-based club, saying that the referee got most of his decisions wrong during the closely contested match.
Durica went on to tell that the Moscow-based club does not deserve to lose the match, saying that Kuban Krasnodar striker, Gheorghe Bucur, was well offside when he scored the winning goal on 71st minute of the enthralling
encounter.
“I must say that Artyom Fidler played great pass and Bucur gave no chance to our goalkeeper who was protecting his side of the pole. Dario Kresic tried to close down the striker but it was very difficult to stop him from scoring
the winning goal.”
“I think he scored the winning goal from an offside position. I even raised my hand to make an appeal to the referees." The former Saturn Moscow Oblast player was quoted as saying.
Aside from their shocking defeat, Durica and Kresic sustained minor injuries during the league tie. Reports in Russian media suggest that the Croatian shot-stopper could be sidelines for over a month after sustaining a facial injury.
However, the Slovakian defender has poured water on such rumours, saying that he is perfectly alright after getting a timely treatment from the medical staff on the pitch.
Kresic, on the other hand, sustained injury after colliding with the opposition player during the second-half of the match. Durica blamed the referee for not booking the respective players despite making a late challenge on the
goalkeeper.
“The referee should have booked the challenger. The doctors recommended Kresic to rest but Kresic decided to play the entire 90 minutes.” He said.
Durica went on to tell his teammates that winning the next league meeting against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Rostov-c39192 is the only way to forget about their latest defeat.
