Russian assistant referee, Musa Kadyrov, was banned for life after assaulting a 18-year-old player during Terek Grozny's 2-1 win over Amkar Perm on Sunday.
Amkar defender, Ilya Krichmar, who was the subject of the attack said:
The ref blew the final whistle and I started walking to our bench when suddenly someone came from behind, pushed me to the ground and began kicking and punching me.
