Former Lokomotiv football player Ruslan Pimenov did not find the words of railway striker Artem Dzyuba about Zenit coach Sergei Semak funny. His words are quoted “Match TV”.
Dzyuba said that he did not know Semak after the Zenit – Lokomotiv match in the ninth round of the Russian Premier League (RPL).
“It’s not funny. If he was 18 years old and the coach did not believe him, he would have kicked him out of the team, but he wanted to prove something. And here he is 35 years old, he won many championships with Semak,” said Pimenov.
The meeting ended with a 2:1 victory for the “railway workers”. Zenit’s player Mateo Cassierra scored the goal in the 22nd minute. In the 60th minute, Lokomotiv midfielder Maxim Glushenkov equalized the score. In the extra time of the second half, Nair Tiknizyan put his team ahead and determined the score.
Previously coach Valery Gazzaev statedHe said that Dzyuba humiliated him by giving a scandalous answer to a question about Semak.
