Former Nizhny Novgorod coach Lokomotiv Valery Ovchinnikov shared his opinion on the possibility of Spartak boycotting the Russian Super Cup. His words convey “RB Sports”.
“It’s ridiculous to boycott the Super Bowl. What guarantees did Spartak ask for, what are the conditions? They can guarantee that they will go wherever they are sent. “If they do not go to St. Petersburg on a conditional basis, they will simply be sent,” said Ovchinnikov.
Former Honorary President of the Russian Football Union (RFU) Vyacheslav Koloskov commented Information that the Russian Super Cup can be held in a two-post format.
In the last season of the Russian Premier League (RPL), Spartak finished tenth. Petersburg “Zenith” became the champion of Russia. Blue-white-blue won RPL gold for the fourth time in a row.
The red-whites won the Russian Cup by beating Dynamo 2:1 in the final of the tournament. This Cup was the fourth in history (1994, 1998, 2003, 2022) for Spartak and the first in 19 years.
