Former CSKA head coach Valery Gazzaev compared Colombian forwards Mateo Cassierra from Zenit and John Cordoba from Krasnodar.
On Saturday, Zenit will host Krasnodar as part of the 15th round of the MIR RPL. Krasnodar leads the standings with 31 points, two points ahead of Zenit.
— Cassierra and Cordoba are one-dimensional strikers. But this season it was Mateo who managed to score more goals against opponents and improved his playing qualities. John, of course, is a little older, but he has questions about execution: during the match he has about three or four obvious opportunities to score goals, but they do not always end in a goal. If you choose between them, then Cassierra looks preferable in terms of results,” RT quotes Gazzaev.
The Zenit – Krasnodar match will take place on November 11 in St. Petersburg at the Gazprom Arena stadium and will begin at 19:30 (Moscow time). Watch the live broadcast of the match on the Match TV channels (from 18:30 Moscow time) and MATCH PREMIER (from 19:25 Moscow time), as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
