Former Krasnodar striker Igor Pikushchak expressed hope that the “bulls” will be able to maintain first place in the WORLD RPL standings until the winter break.
After 17 rounds, Krasnodar is first in the RPL table with 35 points, St. Petersburg Zenit (33) is in second place.
— I don’t know whether Krasnodar will stay in first place; their next round is against CSKA, and Zenit is hosting Paris NN. It won’t be easy. Let’s hope they hold on. It will be an interesting game with CSKA, double-edged. The army team is also not bad now, they have gained momentum.
I don’t know whether the first place will put pressure or give confidence to Krasnodar during the break. But this will definitely be a good help. Will force competitors to include a more significant resource to strengthen and acquire better players. But I think that “Krasnodar” will not lag behind here either,” Pikushchak is quoted as saying by “Championship”.
