Cypriot leadership “Karmiotissa” will be expected from Alexandra Kerzhakova high results as the club’s head coach, says football agent Nikolai Shpilevsky, father of Cypriot “Aris” head coach Alexei Shpilevsky.
Karmiotissa announced Kerzhakov’s appointment on Wednesday. The agreement with the 40-year-old coach is for a year and a half.
“I know that Karmiotissa is based in Limassol,” said Shpilevsky Sr. — This is the best place for a football club. The club president’s ambitions are very high. But, unfortunately, so far they are not justified by the result of this year, which is why the coaches’ leapfrog happens, which I do not approve of.
As for Cypriot football in general, you know, I was skeptical about that myself. But it turned out to be more than a decent level. For example, we remember how local Omonia played with dignity against Manchester United, and AEK Larnaca beat Dynamo Kyiv. It’s a very specific championship, but everything is relative. To be honest, I was wrong about his level.
Will Kerzhakov live up to expectations?
“The expectations of him will also be huge. Alexander Khatskevich also visited Karmiotissa with high ambitions. Everyone there needs a result that will be expected from Kerzhakov.
– Will Karmiotissa be able to adequately compete with Aris?
– They played very well against Aris this year. First they won, then they drew, in general they won points. It is clear that everyone has their own philosophy of club development. If in Aris they rely more on youth, then we see what kind of players are playing in Karmiotissa. For example, former Zenit Tomas Gubochan, who is already 37 years old.
In addition to all that has been said, there is a significant difference in the stadiums in Cyprus. If “Aris” plays in the best new stadium, then sometimes you have to go to such pitches, of which obviously more is expected. In any case, we wish good luck to Alexandre. This is a huge international experience, – quotes Shpilevsky “RB Sport”.
Karmiotissa sits 10th in the Cyprus league standings with 23 points. In the next game, on February 9, the team will play away against Apollon.
On March 3, the WORLD RPL draw will continue. Watch live broadcasts of the matches of the RPL and the Cup of the country on the federal channel and the thematic channels of the holding, as well as on the sites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
