Big scandal in Russian Superleague
Esce l'audio di due arbitri che non sono riusciti a far vincere la partita alla Lokomotiv, come richiesto dal presidente della federazione
Big scandal in Russian Superleague after a file audio (in Russian) revealed that the playoffs game between Lokomotiv and Dinamo was combined by referees.
In the file the referees talk about the impossibility to help Lokomotiv, as ordered by "Chernyj" e "Viktorovich" that are two names of Sergey Viktorovich Chernov, president of RFB.
After the audio was released, the referees were suspended and with them also Maxim Astanin, the Superlegue Director.
After some hours also Chernov resigned from his position.
The two referees said that it was not possible for them to help Lokomotiv due to the scarcity of the roster of Lokomotiv.
Dinamo won the series 3-2 and will now play against CSKA in the semifinals.
