Abaskal does not know how to resolve the conflict with Sobolev, Mostovoy believes

Former Spartak footballer Alexander Mostovoy believes that the head coach of the “red-whites” Guillermo Abascal does not know how to resolve the conflict with striker Alexander Sobolev.

Sobolev was not included in the starting lineup of Spartak for Sunday’s match of the 15th round of the MIR RPL with Rostov (2:1). Abaskal, on Match TV, when asked why the forward was not at the start, answered as follows: “Because it’s raining and the sun isn’t shining.”

— Of course, there is a conflict, that’s obvious. It’s probably impossible to keep your only striker on the bench, but Promes is very good now, this also needs to be recognized. But I think that Abascal does not yet know how to resolve this conflict. It’s good that Spartak won, otherwise everyone would have been talking about Sobolev. I don’t know how they will solve everything, ask Abaskal,” RB Sport quotes Mostovoy as saying.

Spartak scored 24 points and ranks sixth in the championship standings after 15 rounds.
