“Spartak just had a white streak, they are very lucky” – Chervichenko

Former Spartak president Andrei Chervichenko linked the Moscow club’s unbeaten streak in the WORLD Russian Premier League (RPL) to luck.

On Saturday, the “red-whites” defeated Krasnodar at home (1:0) in the match of the 28th round of the Russian championship. When i. O. Head coach Vladimir Sliskovich “Spartak” has not lost in the league for five meetings, the club scored 46 points and rose to fourth place in the table.

— The reason for Spartak’s victories is Abaskal’s departure?

— I can’t agree with this opinion. I think that a white streak has just started and the team is very lucky right now. Let’s take today’s game for example: the same Kadi should score three goals against Spartak.

The fact is that when you are so lucky, your luck usually runs out at the most important moment. I wouldn’t be surprised if this happens in the Russian Cup in the match with Baltika or in the main final against CSKA or Zenit,” RB Sport quotes Chervichenko.

On Tuesday, May 14, Spartak will play away against Baltika in the final of the FONBET Russian Cup Path of Regions. Watch the live broadcast of the meeting on the Match TV channels (from 20:15 Moscow time) and MATCH PREMIER (from 20:40), as well as on the websites matchtv.ru and sportbox.ru.
