UEFA Cup winner Igor Korneev noted the consistency of the team’s actions “Zenith” and appreciated the importance of the return of the Brazilian midfielder Vendela who missed pre-season training camp and the first games of the 2023/24 season.
On Saturday, Zenit beat “Urals” in the 6th round match MIR RPL with a score of 4:0. Cassierra scored a brace and topped the league’s top scorer list with six goals.
— Semak – the coach who, depending on the quality of the players, knows how to balance his composition. We have seen that he even took action such as replacing three defenders. Moreover, it is clear that the task is extremely clear for each player.
Of course, the team lacked a cog like Wendel, who would balance the game with the ball, coming out of pressure. It seems that he hasn’t scored yet, but in almost all important moments – offensive and transitional phases – he plays a key role, – Korneev told .
During the first three rounds, Sergei Semak’s team only scored 4 points, now the “blue-white-blue” have 13 points and are in second place in the standings. In the next round, Zenit will meet away CSKA Moscow on September 3.
