The stolen goal of Sychevy, the anti-record of Gotsuk and the illogical ball of Promes: what did the 15th round of the RPL remember

Another victory for Orenburg

The 15th round of the RPL started with a confrontation between Orenburg and Torch.

Wards of Marcel Lichka expectedly won and inflicted the first defeat in the championship on Voronezh since Dmitry Pyatibratov came to the coaching bridge.

However, after the final whistle, the fans discussed not so much the game as the episode with the second goal.

At the time of receiving the ball, Vladimir Sychevoi, who was fighting for the title of top scorer of the championship, was with his back to the opponent's goal, but in an incomprehensible way managed to break through with his heel.

And the ball had almost crossed the line when it was finished off by Himmi Marin, who scored a double in three minutes.

The Russian reacted emotionally to what happened.

He waved his hand in the direction of his colleague in annoyance and did not run to celebrate with him.

The striker also left the field in the locker room dissatisfied.

In the second half, he failed to distinguish himself, and the striker interrupted a four-match streak in the championship.

And at the end of the meeting, he either jokingly or seriously promised to talk with Marin in a raised voice.

An end to the story was put by Lichka, who reminded that the victory was won by the whole team, and not by individual performers.

The unbending character of Rostov

If "Torch" fell down after the first missed goal, then "Rostov" once again showed character, finding itself in a similar situation in the confrontation with "Akhmat".

Although the first half in his performance left a depressing impression.

Guests not only allowed Mohamed Konata to open an account in the 14th minute, but did not disturb Giorgi Shelia at all.

After the break, the team, as it often happens to them, added and in the end turned the match upside down.

The standard position helped to recoup in the 75th minute, after which the southerners have already scored seven goals in the current RPL season.

This is the second indicator of the league after the aforementioned Voronezh team (eight).

Nikolai Komlichenko hit the opponent's gate, who did not differ for three rounds in a row.

Almost immediately, Kirill Shchetinin brought Valery Karpin's wards forward, but the referee, after watching the replay, canceled the goal due to Komlichenko's handball.

However, in the 86th minute, the yellow-blues still achieved success.

Moreover, the decisive blow was struck by full-back Alexander Silyanov, who unexpectedly joined the attack and closed the canopy from the flank like a born striker.

Thus, Rostov not only won the first victory in all tournaments since the beginning of October, but also the third strong-willed one in the current RPL draw.

In total, he scored 11 points in meetings where he was inferior in the score, and shares the lead in this indicator with Spartak.

Also, the yellow-blue managed to interrupt an unsuccessful series of four defeats in a row from Grozny, the last of which the team suffered at the end of September in the Cup.

It is not surprising that Karpin at a press conference praised the wards for their willpower and called them men.

He did not do without a branded joke.

Leaving the field, the specialist learned that Komlichenko was recognized as the best player of the match and with a smile said: “Who chose?

Blind, right?"  

Incredible ending from "Wings of the Soviets"

An even more impressive rescue was made by Krylya Sovetov, who pulled out a home victory over Pari Nizhny Novgorod in stoppage time of the second half - 2: 1.

As in the case with Rostov, they failed in the first half of the match.

The opponent had the advantage, and after half an hour of confrontation, Timur Suleymanov converted a penalty.

But after the break, Samarans unleashed a flurry of attacks on the gates of Artur Nigmatullin and inflicted a total of 29 blows.

For comparison, the guests marked only five.

In equal numbers, they still held out, but after the removal of Daniil Penchikov, they stopped resisting.

And the main anti-hero in their composition was Kirill Gotsuk.

In the 92nd minute, he unsuccessfully set himself up for a shot from Roman Evgeniev and unwittingly turned out to be the author of an own goal, and then played with his hand in his own penalty area and received a second yellow card.

This is the first such "hat-trick" (removal, own goal and brought penalty) in the RPL since 2009 - it was then that they began to track such statistics.

In addition, Nizhny Novgorod managed to finish the second match of the championship in a row with nine men.

Glenn Bale, in turn, simply had no right not to convert a penalty.

Samarans scored an incredible victory and were only the second team in the history of the national championship, which scored three points, losing in the score by the 90th minute.

Unexpected scorer "Ural"

"Ural" continues to climb the standings.

By the time Victor Goncharenko arrived, the team was on the last line with one point in the liabilities side.

However, under the leadership of the Belarusian, the situation was quickly corrected.

In October, his wards completely issued a four-match winning streak in the RPL, which allowed them to climb to tenth place.

It is no coincidence that club president Grigory Ivanov said that in the first round he had two different teams, one of which can be given a five, and the other a one.

Despite the fact that the Yekaterinburgers failed to score three points in Sochi, they can still be praised for their character and the fight given to the current silver medalist.

The guests were not even embarrassed by the ball conceded in the 28th minute from the penalty spot from Christian Noboa.

They responded to it with the second goal in a row by Yuri Gazinsky in the championship after the corner and a realized penalty kick by Alexei Kashtanov.

The success of the latter is particularly noteworthy.

A few years ago, he played in the Crimean Championship, and made his debut in the RPL only at the age of 26.

But this did not stop the footballer from showing himself and forcing the coach to remove the seemingly indispensable Eric Bikfalvi to the reserve.

This season, the striker not only became the team's top scorer with five goals, but also gave the most successful passes (six).

It is noteworthy that the newcomer also saved Sochi from defeat.

Defender Moussa Sissako came on as a substitute in the second half and scored the first goal in the southerners and only the second in his career at an adult level.

Working success of "Spartacus"

And Spartak in the Moscow derby won a class victory over Torpedo, which became the fifth for him in the last six rounds of the RPL and allowed him to finish the first round in second place.

At the same time, Muscovites could well have distinguished themselves more than once.

They had 62 percent of possession and had 13 shots, eight of which were on target.

However, Oleksandr Dovbnya, who made seven saves, caught the courage.

Quincy Promes alone had a few dangerous moments.

He threatened the opponent's possessions four times and sent the ball into the target three times.

And he missed the surest chance in the first half, when he hit a defender from a couple of meters.

But the midfielder scored not in the most obvious episode.

In the 50th minute, he received a cutting pass from Alexander Sobolev, ran away from two defenders, outplayed Dovbnya and opened the scoring.

This allowed the striker with 12 goals to become the sole leader of the scorers race.

With such a game, he may well beat his own performance record in a single RPL season, which is 18 goals.

Quincy is even closer to overcoming the bar of 100 goals for Spartak.

At the moment he has 96.

Well, Roman Zobnin has already celebrated a kind of anniversary, having played the 200th time for the red and white.

On this occasion, the partners, after the final whistle, handed him a T-shirt with the corresponding number on the back.
