Former Dynamo and Rostov footballer Vitaly Dyakov summed up the results of the first part of the 2023/24 season in the MIR Russian Premier League (RPL).
First place in the RPL standings based on the results of the first round is occupied by Krasnodar, which scored 32 points in 15 matches. Next came the current champion Zenit (30 points).
– There is no opening on the bad side of the season. That year there were Khimki and Torpedo – they clearly stood out. More was expected from Sochi than last place. With their composition and capabilities, they clearly should have been higher. In principle, there is no worst team.
The main opening of the first round is Krasnodar. They compete with Zenit and are in first place. Yes, they don’t show a very beautiful game, the team is focused on the result – and after the first round it is there. Plus it’s worth noting “Wings of the Soviets”.
The Samara team may have been a little unstable at the end of the first round, but they have young guys. The team sticks to its line, Osinkin works well, they are high in the table,” Metaratings.ru quotes Dyakov.
Live broadcasts of MIR RPL matches can be watched on the Match TV and MATCH PREMIER TV channels, as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.

French Football Federation and Zidane’s delegation metto discuss future cooperation. One of Zinedine’s assistants is expected to be the famous specialist David Bettoni, with whom he previously worked at Real Madrid.
The sides also discussed Zidane’s desire to have a squad large enough by national team standards, including a data analysis unit.
The world football legend plans to coordinate these steps separately with the federation, whose policy does not provide a budget increase for the national team staff.
