Zenit can relax and finish the season at their pleasure” – Bulykin

Ex-football player of the Russian national team Dmitry Bulykin told RB Sport that for Zenit the victory over Dynamo in the 24th round of the WORLD RPL could become a championship.

Dynamo knocked out Zenit from the FONBET Cup of Russia on March 15 at the second stage of the quarterfinals of the Path of Regions. On April 22, the teams will play each other in the Russian Championship. Petersburgers lead the standings with 55 points, 9 points ahead of the nearest competitor. The Moscow club is in 5th place with 39 points.

– Today Zenit will play against Dynamo. If the team wins, will it be a championship match for them?

– I think yes. Zenit can already relax and play to their heart’s content, which they are doing now. But in this match, three points are important for both Zenit and Dynamo.

– Do you think that next season Zenit will also be the champion, or will there still be some kind of intrigue and someone will be able to resist?

– I think there will be intrigue and there will be the same competition as now for the second place.

– Tell me, are you not surprised that Rostov is in second place without foreigners?

– In principle, it’s great that a club without foreigners shows results, and this should show others that it is not always necessary to look for foreigners, but to educate your own. Galitsky wanted to start this strategy, but for some reason he abandoned it. Although I think there will be great progress for Russian football if there are as many players and young people as possible in the teams. Because now the places in the standings are not so important. It is important to lay the foundation for the future of our clubs, our students.
