Former Spartak footballer Valery Gladilin called the match of the 9th round of the WORLD RPL with Dynamo a test for the “red-whites”.
The meeting will take place on Saturday, September 23, and will begin at 19:00 (Moscow time). The game will be shown live on the Match TV and MATCH PREMIER TV channels.
— The Russian Cup is not a serious tournament at this stage. There are already teams there that have secured a spot in the playoffs. Everyone puts in reserve squads, players who do not take part in championship matches. Preparations were underway from Spartak and PARI NN. Everyone is preparing for Saturday and Sunday matches. Spartak has a serious game with Dynamo. The Cup is preparation for the championship matches. There is no intensity in the tournament. The guys are fighting among themselves to get into the lineup. There is no need to take the results of these matches seriously.
— Will two victories give Spartak confidence in the championship?
– They should, the guys can believe in themselves. “Spartak” still does not have the backbone of the team or the game. On Saturday we have a game with Dynamo, and this is a serious opponent. For Spartak this is a test. Abascal gave all the main players a rest. The coach is young, a beginner. He doesn’t know much yet. Abaskal is studying, getting better. His problem is in the composition. He has 22 people at his disposal and he will choose the starting XI, which is very difficult to do. There are a lot of good football players, but there is no game,” RB Sport quotes Gladilin.
