Defender of “Spartak” Nikita Chernov believes that the victory of “Wings of the Soviets” over “Zenith” in the group stage match of the FONBET Cup of Russia helped the Moscow club.
Krylya Sovetov on September 14 in Samara beat Zenit in a group B match with a score of 2:0. Midfielder “blue-white-blue” Claudinho received two yellow cards in 3 minutes.
— Game with “Zenith” in the Cup? I don’t want to talk about Claudinho. I wrote off with the guys from the “Wings” – I congratulated them on their victory. Zenit had a long unbeaten streak. Young guys are doubly pleased to beat such an opponent. And at the same time, they helped Spartak a little in the Cup, ”Championship” quotes Chernov as saying.
At the group stage of the Cup of Russia in the third round, Spartak will play with Zenit on September 29 in Moscow.
