On Friday November 4th, FC Krasnodar captain Spartak Gogniev was sent off with two yellow cards for arguing with the referee during an away match against the reserve team of Terek Grozny.
At the edge of the pitch Gogniev was stopped by people who first started an argument with him and then attacked him. After he was punched several times Spartak Gogniev managed to escape into the players' tunnel. In there, he was apprehended by a group of men dressed in police uniforms, who proceeded to beat him with batons.
