Rotor snatches 1-0 win over SKA-Khabarovsk
Volgograd«s Rotor snatched victory in a home match against FC SKA-Khabarovsk. The match at Volgograd Arena, watched by more than 14,000 fans, ended 1-0 in favor of the blue-and-cyan. The winning and only goal was captured on video by a V1.RU reader.
The blue-and-cyan managed to open the scoring only in the 81st minute. The hero of the evening was forward Alexander Khubulov, who converted a penalty. Although there was a dangerous moment near the opponent«s goal at the end of the first half that ultimately led to a goal, the referee did not count it. Fans supported the team not only in the stands but also in the comments.
«Push harder, guys. Don»t let injustice happen when they«re literally stealing 2 points from you. Rotor is critically needed in the RPL. Great stadium, huge fan base. 14,300 spectators at the stadium right now — not all RPL teams draw that many.»
«Genius league. They can»t see a clear goal.«
«At least justice prevailed in this way.»
Recall that in the previous match against Nizhny Novgorod, Rotor lost 4-2. Fans noted poor play by the defenders, who, according to them, left a «hole in the defense.» The blue-and-cyan will play their next match away against KAMAZ on July 27.
