Former “Zenith” footballer Constantine Lepekhin talked about the results of the first round RPL.
It was foreseeable that Zenit would go first. I understood that Zenit were the clear favorites of our championship, the first round confirmed it. Is 7 points clear of second place right now? There is no difference: 7 or 9 points, because Zenit proves to be the strongest in every game. 7 points is not a lot if these 7 points are scored at random, but in the case of Zenit everything was pretty safe. Yes, there may be misfires, but I don’t see any prerequisites for the team to have a whole series of failures. As for the competition for the top spots, the current positions of Spartak and CSKA were expected.
