Former Soviet Union national team player Vladimir Ponomaryov commented on the defense of the Moscow "Spartak" team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, the team's defense is very weak and they need to work more on this aspect. Ponomaryov stated that the players do not protect each other and do not provide assistance.
However, if they put in more effort during training, everything will fall into place and they can show good results in attack. It is also worth noting that on Saturday night, "Spartak" lost to the "Baltika" team at home in the second round of the Russian championship.
Two players from the team – Anton Zabolotniy and Markinyos were sent off the field. As a result, the "red-whites" conceded three goals from the opponent.
In the next, third round, "Spartak" will play away against the "Akron" team in Samara. In this match, the team will try to perform better.
