Former footballer Vladimir Bystrov in an interview with a source, he recounted how the “man on the left” asked the team’s players to pay the referee so that he would judge the match fairly.
I know of cases where people said: “Judges must be paid so that they judge fairly.” This happened to me in a club; we were told that we had to give bonuses to the referee so that he could judge fairly. It’s the only time in my career.
I don’t know the last name. I know the match I played. In the game, I can’t determine whether the referee is working honestly or not. Did you finally distribute the bonus? I did not receive them.
What kind of match was it? I haven’t played on many teams, so it’s not hard to guess. To be honest, I don’t remember how the match ended, but we certainly didn’t win – we lost or drew. It’s not a fact that everything is happening this way – the leftists came and said we have to do it this way. It is not a fact that all this reaches the management and judges. They are football people and they solve their problems. If I had known that the judge had received money, I could have said his name, first name, last name and his correspondence.
We have had enough league matches where teams have lost matches, but our committee has not recognized a single match as fixed. I watched a few matches with the naked eye: there were enough factors why you could say the match was unfair. A simple example: when the goalkeeper, with the score 1:1, has been gaining time all season and at that moment begins to quickly put the ball into play, this is a sufficient reason to say: “Is- he crazy? I wanted to beat the big team when all my life I was looking for time, and now I decided to chase the ball? This factor is enough for me. This is the match between Amkar and Anzhi in Perm – the goalkeeper quickly ran after the ball in the 85th minute so that the team could quickly attack their goal.
