In a very important moment of the season, “Leeds” of our national Iliya Gruev was severely cut by a judge.
The Yorkshiremen were held to a 0-0 draw at home to Sunderland in a Championship round of 42 encounter, and chief referee Tim Robinson was to blame for that.
Gruev was the starter and played the whole match.
“Leeds” tried their best to reach the valuable victory, but failed to realize their chances. One of them came after Gruev’s cross from a corner in the second half.
Again, after a corner kick came the scandalous situation, in which somehow Robinson did not see a foul for a ducpa.
Home defender Joe Roden attempted a header and Luke O’Nion more than clearly cleared the ball with his hand. However, no signal followed. Gruev was very close to the situation and in disbelief sought an explanation from the referee.
The tie in front of 36,793 at Ellen Road lifted Leeds into second place. However, Gruev’s team failed to take full advantage of the new offshoot of the leader “Leicester”, which fell 0:1 when visiting “Millwall”.
The “Foxes” remained at the top with 88 points, and “Leeds” has 87, as well as the third “Ipswich”. However, he and “Leicester” have a game less.
For “Leeds” there are 4 games left until the end of the season, and for its competitors 5. The first 2 teams enter the Premier League directly, and those from 3rd to 6th place play playoffs.
Gruev, who in the last round in the 1:2 loss against “Coventry” returned after an injury, performed very solidly in his role as a defensive midfielder.
Thus, he showed that he has finally overcome the injury in the left ankle received during the national team’s 1:1 draw with Azerbaijan in Baku.
