Caution, Angry Boss!

Chronicle of Ovchinnikov’s attack on a judge

The trick of Sergei Ovchinnikov, attacking the referee Igor Zakharov, was the most discussed topic of the environment. Having flared up in the second half of the match against FC Moskva and having earned a red card, the Dynamo goalkeeper nearly beat the main referee of the meeting and confirmed the trend that has been established in recent weeks in our championship: after the World Cup, Russian football players radiate unprecedented aggression.

The thunder over the small stadium "Torpedo", which was hidden in the lower reaches of Vostochnaya Street, thundered unexpectedly. “Dynamo”, like in most previous matches of the championship, played poorly and lost in the long run: Argentine striker “Moscow” Hector Bracamonte opened the score in the first half. In the middle of the second half of the meeting, after a hustle in the Dynamo penalty box, the ball went over the front line, after which the judge decided to appoint a corner. The Dynamo Gate guard was indignant at this decision, began to swear at the referees, breaking through to them through the barricades of peacemaking partners. After hearing the swearing of the goalkeeper, respectfully referred to by the people as the Boss, Judge Zakharov showed him a red card. Ovchinnikov grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and pushed him away. Leaving the field, the inflated footballer cursed loudly, threatened the judge with a finger and inflicted several blows on the plastic tunnel leading to the stands of the stadium.

In the locker room, Ovchinnikov apologized to his partners. The club’s leadership - both head coach Yuri Semin and CEO Yuri Zavarzin - sharply condemned the behavior of his player. However, the goalkeeper did not calm down and, confessing to reporters, again gave vent to emotions. Talking calmly about what punishment awaits him, Ovchinnikov could not come to terms with one of the questions he was asked. "The captain's armband thrown by you on the field - are these emotions?" “Why was it thrown away?” The goalkeeper asked in surprise. “I just handed it over. Write that I threw it away. You don’t have to ... do, you see. And one more such question - I’ll give you a forehead, bl ... I understand on x ..? "

“I understand Ovchinnikov,” sports psychologist Rudolf Zagainov expressed his opinion to Izvestia. “He is a goalkeeper, that is, because of increased responsibility, his nervous system is under constant tension. This time too much tension has accumulated. What else can an experienced a player, when he plays in a team in which good players are gathered, but there is no result and, therefore, positive emotions ... "

Ovchinnikov’s blood could boil not only because of sports, but also because of financial problems that have covered Dynamo in the last six months. While the owner of the team Alexey Fedorychev does not find the strength and time for the team, its players receive a salary with monstrous interruptions. “Of course, the salary is one of the reasons that Ovchinnikov broke out,” said Dynamo striker Dmitry Bulykin, who scored a goal in the match against Moscow after removing the goalkeeper and took away the blue and white from defeat. “The team is a bit nervous "They constantly promise us that they will pay, but they don’t fully fulfill the promises. They say that they will pay off all debts tomorrow, but nothing will happen tomorrow. As a result, the money debt has already been several months."

The removal of Ovchinnikov is already the third major scandal that occurred on Russian fields after the resumption of the championship. Ten days ago in Tomsk, Spartak was so outraged by the refereeing of the arbiter Kulalaev that he promised to institute a criminal case against him. Last Sunday, the Brazilian star of CSKA, Daniel Carvalho pushed Serge Branco from the “Wings” into the chest for allowing himself to sit on the ball during the game. Finally, on Tuesday evening, Ovchinnikov nearly gave the judge Zakharov an incense. After a series of such conflicts, there is no doubt that all of our players watched the final of the World Cup. At the same time, the episode when Zidane butted the Italian Materazzi, contained the 25th frame: seeing this, the players from Russia became much more bloodthirsty.

"Do not smear the snot and ask for leniency"

“The latest scandals are not the work of Zidane,” Dmitry Bulykin stood up for the French colleague. “Our judges just need to toughly stop the rough game. So that we can play football, and not tell the referees what to do.” “I also don’t see a connection with the brawl between Zidane and Materazzi,” Rudolf Zagainov continues. “It’s all simpler: nobody believes our judges. In the second half of the championship, the referees do what they always do, although they pay enough now. I have I mean intentional mistakes, help to the strong and rich. In general, I fully support Vyacheslav Fetisov that the Russian championship needs to be covered for several years, cleaned and started from scratch - everything is rotten in it. Our football is doing enormous harm to the atmosphere of Russian sports. other species "in fact, they are people in need: they have nowhere to earn. In football, a person who sits on a bench can receive $ 40,000. That's why other athletes despise football players."

After the game, Sergei Ovchinnikov said that he apologized to the referee Zakharov, but did not regret anything: “What happened, happened. Now you should not smear your snot and ask for leniency. And you should not regret it. Yes, I broke. I made a mistake and I’ll be responsible for it. I think I’ll get three or four disqualification matches: after all, there was no physical impact on the referee in my actions. I apologized to Igor Zakharov: we once played in Lokomotiv together and we have normal relations with him It’s just an accident. "

Referee Igor Zakharov: “I think he has something with the psyche”

One of the characters in the scandalous story - the referee Igor Zakharov after the match did not want to communicate with anyone. However, a day later, he nevertheless commented to Izvestia correspondent Chermen Dzgoyev about his attitude to the incident.

Question: What do you think of this whole story?

answer: It's a shame that Sergei could not stand it. It’s especially a shame that I could not stand it in relation to me.

Q: Do you call him Seryozha?

about: Because he is Seryozha for me. Firstly, he is younger than me, and secondly, we have known each other for a long time. The fact that he broke - it does not do him honor, but he found the courage to come and apologize, for which I respect him.

Q: Did you apologize right after the match?

A: He came, yes, to the judiciary. We went into the shower, had a nice chat. He said: sorry, I don’t know what came over me.

Q: But you asked him when you were talking face to face, why did he behave this way? After all, it cannot be that simply because of an incorrectly assigned corner ...

A: No, it was angular, not angular - it doesn’t matter. The question is completely different. This is probably due to some internal problems with the player and internal problems in the club.

Q: By football, do you mean, problems or personal?

A: I think there is something with the psyche. I just know him well and for a long time. A long time ago. Often we came across him.

Q: How did you come across?

A: Well, intersected, I mean.

Q: He said that you even played for a while together in Lokomotiv.

A: Well, yes. True, it didn’t work out for me there. I sued this club, then went to Wings of the Soviets.

Q: What year was that?

about: 1994th or 1995th ... Why dig it?

Q: Do you have an explanation for the fact that in recent days in the Russian championship players have been unmotivated aggression? Carvalho, Ovchinnikov ... Maybe the reason is that they did not play for a long time?

A: I do not think what is connected with this. And the situations are different. In the match CSKA - “Wings”, which was judged by Igor Egorov, this boy, Branko or Bianko ... What is his name?

in: Branco.

about: Yes. He’s just a boor. And I am also surprised that the press is discussing the topic, whether a judge is right or not. And Branko also argues. But what? First of all, he was rude to football, and most importantly, to fans from Russia. He just mixed everything up. He forgot why he came to Russia, to a respected country. Ask any Russian football player who left to play abroad at one time: if he allowed himself to sit on the ball, what would public opinion, a club, an organization conducting the competition do to him?

Q: That is, Carvalho reacted adequately, do you think?

A: No, Carvalho reacted inappropriately. Question: why? Why do people not stand it? Something is wrong in the field of psychology. There are many moments in life that must be endured. Do you think it was easy for me to endure yesterday? You understand that I wanted to do the same yesterday. But for some reason I found strength in myself ... Of course, I understand that I am older, and a little bit different life ... But nevertheless, this is a blatant rudeness.

Q: Do you now hold evil on Ovchinnikov?

A: Ovchinnikov is now as hard as me. Naturally, he now regrets that he did so. But you have to answer for your actions. This is how life is arranged. And he will naturally be punished. I think so. Because he is already an adult guy. And he must be aware, especially - he is a public person.

Q: Was the corner in that episode or did you have to appoint a goal kick?

A: I do not know. Today I watched in the morning, there is nothing at all clear. On TV. But this is the prerogative of my assistant, as I stood diagonally long, and the episode was underneath. He immediately showed the corner, I appointed. Everything is simple there. And for some reason Ovchinnikov ran to his assistant, began to tell him about life. We have instructions and guidelines that we must fight this negative phenomenon. Which I did by showing him yellow. Instead of cooling, for some reason he behaved inappropriately. Then I told him: “Seryozha, you still calm down. Apologize to me and the guys, and then we can get away from this conflict.” Yes it was. Although I should not do that. He did not apologize and immediately received a red card.

Q: You say, "began to talk about life." Is it about foul language?

A: I will not say - censored, obscene. In general, what does censorship, obscene mean? .. This concept is extensible. The Russian language is so diverse that one has to be careful in evaluations. Some even talk like that ...
