Moscow Rodina coach Yuri Kovtun noted the tenacity of the goalkeeper “Zenith” Mikhail Kerjakov .
– Already a coach, I had the chance to work with him. I can say that he has always worked 100% hard and even more. In addition, he is a guy with character, because he did not immediately stand out. Kerzhakov is a representative of the previous generation: he does not give high-level interviews, but he plows the most, does not spare himself. You can see how much he appreciates Zenith. Mikhail grew up there and waited for his chance – now he plays regularly and is the leader of the team. I repeat: Kerzhakov achieved everything with his own work and never gave up. And he always saved. Years later everything paid off well,” the coach said in an interview with RT.
Zenit beat CSKA on Saturday to win the Russian Super Cup for a record eighth time in history. The main time of the match in Kazan ended with the score 0:0. In the penalty shootout, the players of the St. Petersburg team turned out to be more accurate – 5: 4 Kerzhakov saved two penalties.
