Forward of the Moscow “Spartak” Vladislav Shitov, who plays on loan for the Samara “Wings of the Soviets”, said that he had not yet decided on his position on the new format of the FONBET Cup of Russia, noting that it looks interesting.
Krylia lost to Spartak on Tuesday with a score of 0:1 in the match of the first round of the group stage of the tournament.
– The Russian Cup is an opportunity to play for those who get little match practice in the RPL, and a chance for those who enter the Cup to prove that they can create competition for playing in the RPL. We will prepare for the next match against CSKA.
It is not yet clear whether they like the new format of the Russian Cup. But it looks interesting. Let’s see how it will be, – quotes Shitov “Championship”.
The Samara club in the second round on September 14 will host the St. Petersburg “Zenith”.
