Fans of “Zenith” – about the fifth championship in a row: “Unlike” Spartak “in the 90s”, Zenith “the administrative resource does not help”

Athletistic/ Football. Today, May 7, a number of matches of the 26th day of the Russian Premier League took place. In particular, the confrontation between Zenit and Spartak was on the program for the day. The match took place in St. Petersburg at the “Gazprom Arena” stadium. The match was important because Zenit, in the event of a victory, delivered the championship earlier than expected at the end of the 2022/2023 season.

Already in the 13th minute, “Zenith” took the lead thanks to a goal from Claudinho. Spartak goalkeeper Alexander Selikhov tried to clear the ball after a pass from a defender, but hit Claudinho’s exposed leg. As a result, the ball flew into the net of the red and white goal. In the 33rd minute, Spartak equalized. The goal was scored by Keita Balde. Promes fired through the middle of the summer, and the hosts’ failing center of defense gave unresisted to break through from the line of goalkeeper Keita.

In the 40th minute, Zenit regained the lead thanks to a goal from midfielder Andrei Mostovoy. Claudinho played into the wall with Malcolm, receiving a return pass already in the penalty area. The Brazilian gave in the cross to Mostovoy, who stopped and fired under the defender. It didn’t go very well, but the ball, after a rebound from Daniil Denisov’s foot, changed direction and rolled into the opposing goal.

For a long time there were no goals. However, in the 84th minute, Spartak had the chance to take a penalty after a foul from Dmitry Chistyakov. Quincy Promes converted an 11-yard kick and leveled the score. Quincy powerfully hit the bottom in the left corner, and the goalkeeper, “Zenith” did not guess the direction of the ball. However, “Zenith” still managed to win. At the end of the match, Ivan Sergeev scored the golden goal. Daler Kuzyaev from the right kicked the ball to Gustavo Mantuan in the penalty area, who shot in the middle of the summer, and Ivan Sergeev clipped the ball in the far corner into touch.

Thus, “Zenith” ahead of schedule became the champion of Russia. Bleu-blanc-bleu won the Russian championship for the fifth time in a row. In total, Zenit has ten national championship victories, including a USSR championship.

Fans of “Zenith” reacted to the championship of their team. They left their comments in the official club community of St. Petersburg in Vkontakte.
