– Both teams can be commended. The match is quite interesting. Infrequently, we see that Zenit “brings” goals to itself. Most of the blame for this goal is on Kerzhakov. Yes, Alip rolled, but Kerzhakov could just take the ball and knock it out. It’s just a football moment.

Natural result of the match. CSKA plays its best matches with Zenit. There was a struggle, the army team was charged – this plays to the advantage. In moments, Zenit surpassed CSKA. Most of the time CSKA was thinking about defense. This match is once again confirmation that Zenit is in a fever,” Mostovoy told the Championship.

In the next round, CSKA will host the Samara Krylya Sovetov on September 16. Zenit a day later will play away with Rubin Kazan.
