“The Super Cup should show whether CSKA can fight Zenit for the championship” – Boris Rapoport

Former head coach of Zenit Boris Rapoport told RB Sport that the match for OLIMPBET Russian Super Cup, in which Zenit will play with CSKA, will show the ability of the army team to fight for the championship next RPL season.

– This Super Bowl should show whether CSKA can compete with Zenit in the fight for the championship this season. Because I think that the army team, as well as Lokomotiv, are the clubs that can do it. So this match will show a lot. It is clear that Zenit is the first number in it, but it is curious what CSKA will offer. Although I do not fully understand what is happening with Oblyakov. We are in touch with him all the time, as I understand it, he is recovering from an injury. But, one way or another, I’m very interested in the game of CSKA in terms of attacking actions.

– And the game of “Zenith” in the attack?

– And Zenit obviously has problems in attack. It is clear that an attacker is needed. There are a lot of approaches, but the implementation suffers. Only Malcolm can realize. So you need a scorer who can finish. Everything is not going well with Cassierra … Although it is clear that Semak believes in him. Sergeev is a substitution player, a free-kick and one-touch player. And Semak never tried them together. Although for the RPL this composition is enough to win.

– Are you waiting for Vasiliev’s appearance in the Super Bowl match?

– Probably, we need to do this, because Wendel and the team did not prepare. I like Vasiliev very much, I have known him for a long time. He is an interesting player, but, of course, he lacks experience. On the other hand, if he doesn’t play, he won’t get any experience. And I wouldn’t recommend renting it out. He should be on the team, training with these high-class guys. And add next to them. Bakaev, Erokhin, Sutormin are unlikely to appear in the squad if everyone else is healthy. But Mostovoy can, although in the person of Du Queiroz, he has serious competition.

The game for the Super Cup will take place on July 15 at the Ak Bars Arena in Kazan. Watch the live broadcast of the match on Match TV and MATCH PREMIER channels, matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru websites. The meeting will start at 17:00 Moscow time.

When I came on in the second half, he put Jadon Sancho and Morgan Rodgers on the wing and put Youri Tielemans in the No. 10 position, so we had an extra player. He’s a tactical genius,” Watkins said.

    “Amazing victory. For me personally, to go on the pitch and score two goals is a fantastic feeling, but to continue that streak and come here to such a difficult place and beat Chelsea is just incredible,” he added.
