Sungatulin said that the matches against Spartak are still special for him

Midfielder “Ural” Fanil Sungatulin said that he still had a part of “Spartak” because he spent a lot of time in the Moscow football club.

Sungatulin is a graduate of the Moscow Spartak Academy. At the end of January, Ural reported that it had bought the rights to a 21-year-old player rented from a Moscow club in the summer.

– In early February, I signed a long-term contract with Ural. My goals so far are to develop, start playing at the core of the team and be an active player. Of course, try to progress with each game and bring more benefits to Ural.

To be honest, I didn’t even know how much they paid for me, I didn’t hear about 30 million. I don’t feel pressure about it. Didn’t even think about it. The team has much more expensive players, and there can be pressure.

In a club interview, he spoke about the “Spartak spirit”, but there are no such thoughts anymore. Now I play in the “Ural” and now there is no spirit as such. Perhaps the matches with Spartak are still special for me, because I spent a lot of time in the Moscow club. But I would not say that the mood for the game is very different from other matches. Still, I still have a part of Spartak, I played there for several years.

Does Spartak have the opportunity to catch up with Zenit? I think yes! If they play consistently. The team looked very good. If Zenit makes mistakes in subsequent matches, perhaps yes, Spartak will have a chance. Let’s see what happens next,” Sungatulin told Sport24.

Spartak is second in the RPL standings with 37 points, Ural is 10th with 22 points.

Zhurova believes that PSG has no problems with Safonov and Zabarny

French team Paris Saint-Germain shouldn’t have any problems as the Russians play on the same team Matveya Safonov and Ukrainian Ilya Zabarny. This opinion was expressed by the Olympic speed skating champion, deputy of the State Duma Svetlana Zhurova.

Previously, Minister of Youth and Sports of Ukraine Matvey Bedny he called on the French club to resolve the situation, which, in his opinion, is inconvenient.

“All soccer players are professionals,” Zhurova said. “In my opinion, this situation is inconvenient only for Ukrainian officials, who constantly try to add fuel to the fire PSGnor did the players themselves express any complaints or report any discomfort. Accordingly, there is nothing to fix here. The club itself knows how to do better.”

Zabarny moved to PSG last summer. Safonov has been playing for the Parisians since last season.
