“Spartacus” has a chance to win in the fifth round match of the WORLD of the Russian Premier League (RPL) with “Zenith” however, ‘red-white’ for this you need to be more disciplined and make fewer mistakes in defense, the former head coach of the Russian national team told Boris Ignatiev .
The teams will meet on Sunday at the Rouge-Blanc stadium. The starting whistle will sound at 7:30 p.m. Spartak are fifth with nine points in the WORLD RPL standings, Sergei Semak’s side (7) are seventh.
– Lots of expectations. Zenit have somewhat lost their winning flavor and no longer look like a team that is unequivocally the leader and the favorite in the championship. Although we got used to it earlier. With the departure of a group of players and due to the fact that several players have lost their true colors, it seems that the Semak team is looking for the necessary components to reach a leading position. Therefore, misfires accompany everything that happened with Zenit. Not a single team after such losses will be able to continue moving as if nothing had happened from the point of view of psychology.
The upcoming match gives us intrigue, who is our real leader: Spartak with their excellent offensive game, or Zenit will once again find the mistakes of the opponent, which they will point out to him. Still, you need to be more responsible and disciplined defensively, as well as more tactically trained to be the league leader. So far, Spartak doesn’t have that. There are many questions. This does not affect the balance of power in the standings, because a lot is still to come. But after the game a lot will become clear to the players themselves – what they can count on. This game will, to some extent, give us an answer to the question of whether everything remains the same or whether we should expect new achievements and a serious fight for the title.
Spartak has a chance. The Red-Whites will be confident and give their best in attack, but it must be understood that football is a two-way street. You have the ball, you attack. If he is not there, then the whole team is thinking about how to select him. An immutable law, Ignatiev told .
