Nika Ngamalyo Critiques Karpin for Excluding Her Boyfriend from the Starting Lineup

A girl named Mumi Ngamalyo, known as Nika, expressed her criticism towards the head coach of Moscow’s «Dynamo,» Valery Karpin, for not including her boyfriend in the starting lineup for the match in the third round of the group stage of the RPL Path of the Fonbet Russian Cup against «Krylya Sovetov.»

«This is a very unpleasant situation. My boyfriend has always played in the main squad of ‘Dynamo’ and invited my mom to the game. I came to watch it with her. He was supposed to start, that was confirmed. Then, right before the game, they replaced him and put him on the bench, and this isn’t the first time it’s happened. They keep benching Nikolay, especially in the recent matches. Just imagine living and breathing this, and constantly being sidelined or substituted, even though you are one of the best players on the team. How can you perform or even step onto the field under such circumstances? I have serious questions for the coach,» she stated in a video shared on her Telegram channel.
