Athletistic / Football. Zenit mentor Sergey Semak has shared his opinion on team defender Mario Fernandez’s play in RPL 5th round game with Spartak. The duel ended with the score 3:1 in favor of St. Petersburg. Fernandez started in the starting lineup and was substituted midway through the second half.

“Fernandez is sitting too deep in defense, does that interfere with his offensive actions and does he interfere with Karavaev? I think he doesn’t interfere with Vyacheslav Karavaev, but there are possibilities that Mario has also missed a lot, he lacks game tone so he’s a little assertive when he’s tired. We see that too. I think he’ll get back into shape soon. Now we’re giving him 60-70 minutes to recover when he is in better shape, he will play more actively, the same Slava can play more actively in attacking actions.

That’s how the game was going, we were leading, Slava didn’t join so much. In other scenarios, he could have advanced more actively, but today’s game mostly asked him to play more reliably in defense. Considering he has often been with Promes in situations, we know how strong Spartak are in quick attacks. Today, Slava’s activity in the attack is determined by this. As for Mario, of course he will win, he will be even stronger. I agree, there were times when he could go more actively”, quotes the press service of Zenit Semak.
