Athletistic will broadcast live online text: Football. Russian Cup. The path of the regions. The final. “Baltika” – “Spartak”. Direct
Vladimir Slishkovich’s incredible unbeaten streak with Spartak continues. Comparisons are already starting with Massim Carrera, who also started as an assistant coach in Moscow, then became head coach and led Spartak to the championship. But now such confidence in Sliskovich no longer exists, although if the club wins the Russian Cup and enters the top 3 of the RPL, everything could change. In any case, there are only 2 stages left before winning the Cup, and in the championship the same “Krasnodar” can stumble 2 more times and “Spartak” can bypass it. But for the moment the red and white are fifth and the fight for fourth place with Lokomotiv is more realistic.
If we return to the Cup, Spartak, after being eliminated from the RPL Path by Zenit, eliminated their main competitor from the lower bracket, Dynamo, and now their rivals are the simplest Baltika.
Although Baltika looks good in the last few games, they are on the verge of direct relegation from the RPL. There are 3 points to save a place, but opponents also earn them regularly and even victories do not guarantee Kaliningrad an exit from the basement of the ranking. And now the club must choose what is more important: the fight for the RPL or the Cup final. The final is honorable, but the trophy will be difficult to win. Even if you beat Spartak, CSKA or Zenit will be next.
Soccer. Russian Cup. The path of the regions. The final. “Baltika” – “Spartak”. Direct
