The Moscow derby will be remembered for a long time.
Doorman
Denis Adamov (Sochi)
Aleksandrov’s shot from distance would hardly have been blocked even by the best goalkeeper in the world. But the ball after Rybchinsky’s throw went close to Adamov’s hand, he didn’t read the episode. Then Denis missed Krotov: a shot in the goalkeeper’s corner. And for dessert, the goalkeeper missed his fourth goal in the middle, choosing the wrong location. The ball went “between the ears” of Adamov.
Defenders
Ivan Miladinovich (Sochi)
In Sochi, you can send all defenders here. Drkusic received a red card, he is to blame for the defeat in Sochi. Margasov was removed from the game after Pari NN’s second goal. But let’s note the person who pointed to the struggle. Ivan constantly backed away and allowed the opponent’s players to prepare devastating blows. The Serbian defender played very badly, reflecting his mistakes on the scoreboard.
William Rocha (CSKA)
The choice needs some explanation. Most likely, Rocha should have received only a yellow card for recreating Sobolev’s gesture for the referees. But there was no need to grab you by the genitals. It turned out that it was this behavior of the defender, unjustified by the situation, that led CSKA lose in the derby. When playing ten by ten, the team that has the ball most often has an advantage, and that was Spartak.
Matias Perez (Orenburg)
Strange protector. It can be seen that the Argentine has skill, but at the same time is prone to hasty and unexpected decisions. In children’s football sections they are taught not to pass the ball across the field near their own penalty area. Perez broke the old football rule: Zenit opened the scoring with goals in the match against Orenburg. A serious blunder by a generally promising defender.
Mingiyan Beveev (Urals)
The Urals left-back has made an incredible amount of mistakes. Once he was close to a great goal – he hit the far nine, but this episode happened in the end with a score of 3: 0 in favor of the opponent. Beveev left an empty zone when “Wings of the Soviets” developed the second scoring attack on the right flank. Mingiyan also made a mistake when Vitiugov entered the penalty area and Cisse broke the rules against him in the Beveev zone.
Midfielders
Danil Glebov (Rostov)
Recorded in this composition. The Rostov captain does not stick to the game in the worst segment for his team of three defeats. Glebov missed Cordoba before Ionov’s goal. After that, the captain allowed Spertsyan to throw the ball to the Krasnodar center forward. The third goal was without Glebov’s participation, but it was close: he saw young Koksharov score with his head.
Wilmar Barrios (Zenit)
A rare case where Barrios deserved to join this team. Suppose he celebrated the championship too violently and played as if he had a hangover. It is significant that Semak does not trust other options in the support zone so much that he does not give the Colombian a break. But Wilmar wasn’t ready. He allowed the first attack on goal to develop and covered his partner when Gojkovic scored.
Vittorio Mendes (CSKA)
The “soldiers” failed to play well in the center of the field. When they tried to take the lead in the second half, Spartak didn’t break, because Zdelar and Mendez didn’t keep the ball. Akinfeev tried to quickly direct the projectile towards Chalov and Oblyakov, but when it came to work on the penalty area line, CSKA lost in a ten-for-ten match. Mendez did not dominate the Moscow derby.
Ibrahima Cisse (Urals)
Ural’s central midfielder earned a penalty in his own net, helped Wings of the Soviets to a devastating score. Even during the first scoring attacks, Cisse worked incorrectly, allowing Bale and Tsypchenko to recall moments. Gancharenko reacted immediately after the penalty: Cisse went on to the bench.
after you
Alexander Sobolev (Spartak)
In the past, Dzyuba and Sobolev were compared, as it is clear that two tall men love each other and do not like to weigh the consequences of their actions. Alexander acted unworthy and he is unlikely to be able to clearly explain why he took the genitals after the fight with Rosha. Something primitive and stupid. Revenge will be disqualification, “Spartak” lost the striker of the base for the decisive rounds RPL.
Anton Zabolotny (CSKA)
Return of the legend. Zabolotny returned to base CSKA, showed the right football: he loaded the defenders with force work, actively distracted in past matches. But he failed in the derby. Zabolotny doesn’t have enough class to always work like him in the match against Spartak in the recent past when he converted the only shot. This time Anton didn’t score, even if he only found a moment.
Head coach
Dmitry Chochlov (Sochi)
Fedotov did a bad job in the derby, if you take away the strange refereeing. “Ural”, “Rostov”, “Khimki” and “Torpedo” were defeated in this round. But if you are looking for a coach whose work suits the Medialeague to the fullest, then these are definitely not the mentors of the named teams, namely Khokhlov. It is unclear why Sochi did not try to find another coach in Berdyev’s place before the end of the season. Khokhlov’s team conceded four goals after the break…
Scandal of the tour. Karasev Arbitration Brigade
The star referee failed in the Moscow derby. Most likely, ESC RFS extension there will be arguments in favor of a yellow card for Muten instead of a sending off. It’s also possible that expert opinions are divided in weighing a penalty against CSKA. Karasev failed to convince Sobolev and company that he would be harsh and one should not choose ugly gestures and deeds. He does not remove the blame from the players: they used various tricks, such as shoves, verbal taunts, and then an obscene gesture, but Karasev is unlikely to receive high marks for his work. Too bad, because the result of the Moscow derby affects the definition of a silver medal RPL.
