Former goalkeeper of the Russian national team Ruslan Nigmatullin spoke about the game of Spartak goalkeeper Ilya Svinov in the match of the 5th round of the Russian championship against Zenit.
The Moscow club on Sunday lost at home with a score of 1:3.
– If someone is to blame for the defeat, then the goalkeeper is the last one. The way Spartak plays in defense, put three in the goal, it will fly anyway. Which of the goalkeepers is stronger, they decide, of course, on the spot. It is difficult to say who is in what state.
Selikhov played last season, but there were a number of scoring mistakes. Maksimenko, it seemed to me, started well, but he had some kind of malaise, then he ended up on the bench. Then Svinov, but he missed a lot in the last three matches. Therefore, I bet that Maksimenko will be in the next match, – Metaratings.ru quotes Nigmatullin.
After five rounds, the Red-Whites are in sixth place in the Russian Championship standings with nine points.
