Football expert Dmitriy Bulykin shared his thoughts on the second round of the Russian Premier League in an exclusive interview with Euro-Futbol.ru. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
After the second round, only the "Lokomotiv" team remains the sole leader without losing any points. According to the expert, this situation was not unexpected.
Although it was difficult for "Krasnodar" to win at home, the railway workers showed a good game. He particularly noted that Batrakov scored with a header, putting the defenders under pressure.
He also mentioned that the performance of players who played last season has improved. The presence of many Russians in the team was noted as a positive factor.
One of the reasons for "Krasnodar's" defeat was explained by the team's inability to find its game rhythm and some players not being able to show their level. The initial results of the season are not hopeless; the team can recover and move forward.
It was also discussed that in the match between "Zenit" and "Rubin," despite "Zenit" being ahead 2:0, the final score ended in a 2:2 draw. It was emphasized that individual errors in "Zenit's" defense and a lack of harmony in the game are problematic.
Regarding the penalty awarded, it was clearly indicated that the player handled the ball, and it was noted that in such situations, a penalty is the correct decision. "Spartak's" heavy defeat to "Baltika" was linked to the team's inability to find itself and the impact of a player being sent off early in the match.
"Baltika" was recognized as a well-prepared and physically strong team for the season. At the same time, it was mentioned that other teams might change their playing style against "Baltika" during the season.
It is natural for "Spartak" fans to be concerned about the current state of the team, as the team struggles to perform evenly against strong competitors. Some decisions regarding refereeing may be controversial, but it was emphasized that overall, there should be less focus on refereeing and more effort to understand the game better.
At the end of the interview, the author Elena Grigorievskaya shared her thoughts.
