“Kuchta started illegally in the Russian Cup match against the Yenisei,” Artur Grigoryans, head of Russia’s control and disciplinary commission, confirmed to Sport-express.
“Yenisei Krasnoyarsk could have protested against his start, but he did not. The player therefore committed his guilt in the aforementioned cup match and therefore rightfully played in the league against Khimki, “he added.
He also confirmed that Khimki’s protest had been rejected and that it is now up to the club to appeal to the Russian Football Union Appeals Committee against the disciplinary’s verdict.
