Football players “Zenith” entered the Russian championship match against “The Wings of the Soviets” a bit of a bad mood, which led to the missed goal in the first minute, the blue-white-blue midfielder told Ilzat Akhmetov .
On Saturday, Zenit drew against Krylia Sovetov in the away match of the 22nd round of the MIR RPL – 1:1.
— Few people expected Zenit to lose points. What is the reason?
– It’s football. “Wings” is a good team. Probably, we first entered the field with almost the wrong attitude, so there were a lot of attacks from the opponents and we conceded a goal without success. Then they started to tie the game, but when you lose and the whole opposing team is playing behind the ball line, it becomes more difficult to open up the defense. You had to go out immediately with the right attitude and without the slightest let-up.
— Was the pressure from the “Wings” from the first minutes a surprise?
— We knew they played well at home. We prepared, but did not follow the coach’s instructions,” Akhmetov told .
Zenit leads the Russian Championship with 41 points, Krasnodar is second (39 points and a game in hand) and Dynamo is third (38).
