Krasnodar’s striker John Cordoba is playing for Zenit St. Petersburg in Russia. He announced a special attitude towards St. Petersburg. His words are quoted “Sports Express”.
Is Krasnodar stronger than Zenit? I think we showed all of these in the championship matches. Where we are now is definitely deserved. I won’t say anything about Zenit, this is their business. It seems to me that it is forbidden to talk about Zenit, ha ha! “During the 2.5 years I played in Russia, I was convinced that there is a special attitude towards this club,” Cordoba said.
Krasnodar entered the winter break as the leader in the Russian Premier League (RPL) with 38 points after 18 weeks. In the 18th round, Vladimir Ivich’s team defeated CSKA with a score of 1:0. St. Petersburg Zenit is in second place with two points missing. Dinamo Moscow (32 points) completed the top three.
The Russian Championship will continue after the break in March 2024. Krasnodar will play its first match at home after the break and host Rubin Kazan, while Zenit will play at St. Petersburg. They will face Spartak in St. Petersburg.
