Athletistic/ Football. Rubin midfielder Oleg Ivanov compared Zenit to Spartak. He noted that the St. Petersburg team has better teamwork.

Zenit is a better team. Now it’s only the 7th round, Spartak has a new coach and new emotions, it’s clear – they are fighting, everyone wants to show themselves, hence the intensity.

But even if we take the game of these teams, Spartak looked solid and even outclassed at times. But we must understand that Zenit suffered a big loss: Glushenkov did not play. Now that the new guys have arrived (Gondu and Sobolev) and Maxim has recovered, it will be possible to monitor the distance,” Ivanov said according to RB Sport.

Zenit is leading the RPL standings. The club has scored 17 points from seven games.
