Before the next important match in the fight for the top positions, our club emphasizes the need to ensure fair and objective refereeing.
We are convinced that any public assessments of the referees' work before the matches create additional tension around the game and do not contribute to balanced decision-making on the field.
Each new match should not be a reason to revisit controversial episodes of previous matches but an opportunity for referees to perform their duties impartially and fairly.
Any influence on refereeing, regardless of its form, contradicts the basic principle of football: the result should be determined exclusively on the field.
Throughout the season, most teams have faced episodes where refereeing decisions influenced the course and outcome of matches. Our team is no exception. But we believe that this issue requires systematic work and analysis.
FC "Metalist 1925" consistently advocates for equal conditions for all championship participants, transparency of decisions, and respect for the sporting principle.
We expect that the upcoming match will be conducted in fair competition, and all referee decisions will be objective and unbiased.
