In the following sentence:
В то время как опытный Французов за три тура ни разу не вытянул "билетик" и не отсудил ни одного матча!
Taken from an article about Spartak complaining about Sukhina, and comparing him to other European refs. Here's more context:
Мы все время пытаемся изобрести "велосипед" и почему-то игнорируем опыт, накопленный в европейском футболе. Разве там назначают судей за сутки до игры? Разве центральный матч чемпионата может обслуживать малоизвестный арбитр? В то время как опытный Французов за три тура ни разу не вытянул "билетик" и не отсудил ни одного матча!

Actually, I missed that he is an arbiter, so he didn't play but judged a lot of games. So it would be "seasoned Frantzuzov" (I am not sure I am transliterating his last name correctly)
