Athletistic / Football. Former coach of Dynamo Moscow Andrei Kobelev shared his thoughts on the match of the 21st round of the RPL, in which Zenit and Rubin met. The match, which took place in St. Petersburg, ended with a sensational victory for the guests with a score of 2:0.

After this match, the fight for the championship intensified. Now the St. Petersburg team is ahead of Krasnodar, which is in 2nd place, by just one point.

“Everyone, including me, expected Zenit to win, because Krasnodar and Dynamo were chasing. But Zenit was not mobilized one hundred percent and faced a fierce game from Rubin – which we let’s call it a knife.

The battle between Dynamo and Zenit: Can Lichka outwit Semak?

We knew very well that Rubin played very well and compactly in defense. To break this defense, you need speed and quickness with the ball. But Zenit did not show this speed. It is impossible to beat a standing team at the moment,” Kobelev quotes in the Championship.
