Zenit striker Mateo Cassierra will play in St. Petersburg before the Russian championship restarts. He talked about the place of the St. Petersburg team. His words are quoted sports.
“We had a great celebration of the championship in the stadium in the spring, followed by a bus tour of the city, where we were warmly welcomed by the fans. Do you think we don’t want to experience that again?
It’s only our fault that Zenit came second; It was impossible for us to lose to Dynamo, Lokomotiv and Orenburg. If you lose that many times in the first round, you don’t deserve to lead,” Cassierra 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.
