Penalties in the match “Zenit” - “Moscow” July 12, 2009
July 12, 2009 in St. Petersburg in the match of the 13th round of the championship of Russia between Zenit and FC Moscow [1], the main referee of the match Eduard Malyi in the 77th minute with a score of 1-0 in the favor of Zenit awarded a penalty against the hosts for violating Pavel Pogrebyanka against Gia Grigalava . The kick of Muscovites midfielder Alexander Samedov, goalkeeper of the “Zenith” Kamil Chontofalski repelled his feet, but Alexander Sheshukov finished the ball into the net. However, Maly did not count the goal, considering that the guests ’footballers entered the penalty area after breaking a penalty even before Samadov hit. The referee did not notice that the Zenit players also entered the penalty area ahead of time. At the same time, Maly did not give the players the guests to kill the 11-meter strike.
The management of FC Moscow after the game filed a protest against the decision of the referee, and the inspector gave Maloy a rating of two for the match [2] . The question of the result of the match and the possible appointment of a replay was considered at a meeting of the FTC on July 17, 2009. The referee's decision caused a lively discussion in the Russian football community.
Small in an interview with the media admitted his mistake, calling it a “crude methodological miscalculation” associated with the position of the arbitrator incorrectly chosen when a penalty was breached, when he could not see all the penalty and Zenit players [3] . Specialists also confirm the mistake of Eduard Maly - a well-known referee in the past, and now the match delegate Alexei Spirin, pointed out Maly's mistake, noting that, in general, Eduard judged well [4] . The head of the college of football referees, Sergei Zuev, said that Maly Miscalculation was not a “technical error” [5] .
Penalties for the match Lokomotiv - Zenit April 7, 2012
Roman Shishkin went on the flank, filed into the penalty area, where Pavlyuchenko didn’t get to the ball, but flew to Caichedo, who earned the ball with one touch, and he only had to nod his head at the empty net, but Tomas Gubochan scooped the ball from the goal line, taking off most from the head of Felipe. The match lasted about a minute, until the side judge gave the order to stop the game and put a penalty. Eduard Maly listened to the opinion, but for some reason did not begin to remove Gubochan.
Roman Shirokov, Zenit midfielder, when asked why the red card was not shown to Tomas Gubochan (Lokomotiv - Zenit 0: 1): This is surprising. If a penalty is awarded, then there should be a red card.
Sergei Khusainov, a former FIFA referee, about the episode with a penalty in the goal of “Zenith” (“Lokomotiv” - “Zenith” 0: 1): Maly accepted after hearing from the assistant Anton Averyanov. Anton is an experienced referee, stress-resistant. Good that he intervened. If someone else were in his place, I suppose the game would continue. It is unclear what guided Maly, without removing the player, “Zenith”. There, according to the game situation, there was the most natural red card. However, Gubochan did not even receive a warning.
Retirement
In 2013, he decided to end his career for health reasons [6] .
