Askhabadze said that Fakel has the smallest budget among RPL clubs
Fakel General Director Roman Askhabadze rated the club’s performance in the first round of the MIR RPL as five points.
After 15 rounds, Fakel ranks 10th in the Russian Championship standings.
– This is not the first time we are breaking any patterns, in terms of budget for sure – it was one of the lowest in the FNL, and despite this, our club entered the Premier League on a sporting basis. In the same way, we survived last season and overcame the difficulties.
Today’s Fakel budget is also in 16th place, and we rate the first round at five points, but the championship is not over yet, so let’s evaluate not its first or second round, but its overall results. The density of the RPL table is such that there is no need to rejoice at the interim results for a long time, Sport24 quotes Askhabadze.
On Sunday, “Fakel” will play against “Rubin” in Kazan in the 16th round. Watch live broadcasts of MIR RPL matches on the Match TV and MATCH PREMIER TV channels, as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
