Former Zenit football player and coach, USSR champion Vyacheslav Melnikov believes that otherworldly forces intervened in the fate of the medal draw in the WORLD RPL.
Now Dynamo, Zenit and Krasnodar are vying for the title, having scored 53, 51 and 50 points after 28 rounds, respectively.
— I don’t understand at all what’s happening with Zenit. An attraction of generosity and politeness. CSKA gives them the ball, Wendel hits a player on the goal line. Then their goalkeeper Torop “pulls” them out from under the crossbar. How can we explain this? So does Krasnodar. Kadi goes one on one with the goalkeeper, beats him, and misses the empty goal. How to explain this? Only by the intervention of “higher powers”. Now the championship race in the RPL is controlled by some forces beyond human control.
Because there is another example of Dynamo Moscow. Well, it seemed they wouldn’t beat Sochi. However, they scored a goal in the 95th minute and won 3:2. Now there was a match with Baltika. Again the same player (Mumi Ngamale) scores on the 99th. Some crazy goal. Again Dynamo wins 3:2. What’s the matter? It is clear that someone at the top is sitting and pulling the strings, controlling the players from our championship. “I don’t see any logic in the results,” RB Sport quotes Melnikov as saying.
