Former CSKA goalkeeper coach Vyacheslav Chanov noted that Zenit goalkeeper Mikhail Kerzhakov outplayed the Moscow team in the penalty shootout of the match for the OLIMPBET Russian Super Cup.
The main time of the meeting in Kazan ended with the score 0:0. In the penalty shootout, the Zenit players turned out to be more accurate – 5:4. Kerzhakov parried two blows.
– Usually, when a team wins a penalty shootout and the goalkeeper is directly involved in this, he is always a hero.
– How can you explain that for a long time he did not manage to reflect the penalty, and in the last two series he became the main character?
It’s always a lottery. Now she turned to face him. How much I said: penalties are not trained. This is psychology. Somewhere Kerzhakov outplayed CSKA players in moments when they failed to score a penalty.
– With such a game, Kerzhakov can still get a call to the Russian national team?
Let’s see and wait. It all depends on how the team coaches see it. We need to see how the situation develops: whether we will be allowed to official matches or not. Maybe they will already bet on younger goalkeepers. Each goalkeeper before the start of the season has the right to get into the national team, – quotes Chanov’s words “Sport Day by Day”.
The St. Petersburg club won the Russian Super Cup for the fourth time in a row and for a record eighth time in history.

Former Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos He talked about his interaction with Brazilian striker Vinicius Junior and other representatives of Brazil within the scope of the “royal club”.
“The Brazilians aroused my sympathy even as a child. While playing for Real Madrid, I developed excellent relationships with Vinicius, Casemiro and Militao.
It is very easy to find a common language with these guys: they know how to enjoy life, and their mentality is significantly different from that of the Germans.
Casemiro and Vinicius and I understood each other perfectly on the field and developed a unique football bond with Vini.
We communicated warmly in daily life. I believe that if there is no contact between players off the field, it is extremely difficult to achieve harmony in the game.
I used Vini’s high-speed bursts effectively and he masterfully directed my passes,” AS Kroos reports.
Let’s remember that Kroos defended the jersey of Real Madrid from 2014 to 2024. During this decade the German midfielder won the Champions League five times.
