Maxim Glushenkov was substituted during the halftime of the match between "Rubin" and "Zenit" in the second round of the Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
At that point, the St. Petersburg team was leading 2:0, but by the final whistle, the score was equalized at 2:2. The team's head coach Sergey Semak stated that he decided to substitute Glushenkov due to his many mistakes.
However, the player's father emphasized that this substitution was incorrect. He said: "Was I upset?
Of course, I was. The score was 2:0, the game was ongoing, why did he need to be substituted?
Everything was fine, but in the end, the score was equalized at 2:2. Who can we blame for this?" Aleksandr Glushenkov also added in an interview with "RB Sport" that all players make mistakes on the field.
In the next round, "Zenit" will host the CSKA team at home. Sergey Semak criticized Glushenkov for the points lost.
