Vladislav Radimov, a former player of the "Zenit" football club, defended the head coach of the St. Petersburg team, Sergey Semak. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The incident was triggered by the social media posts of Sergey Semak's daughter, Maya Semak. In response to her father's criticisms after the match against the "Rubin" team, Maya Semak expressed her desire to completely shut down the internet for the "haters" on social media.
Radimov also expressed his opinion and defended head coach Sergey Semak. He reminded that under Semak's leadership, the "Zenit" team became the Russian champion six times in a row, finishing second only once.
He also emphasized that the coach has made a significant contribution to the development of the players and stated that he considers the criticisms being voiced after just two rounds to be unfounded. Radimov said: “Pay attention, you are specialists!
This person has provided you with six consecutive championships. In seven seasons, he finished second only once.
So many players have developed. So many gold medals, celebrations, and other achievements have been brought in.
Therefore, for those writing bad things, there is no need to speak.” In the new season, "Zenit" achieved a determined victory over "Rostov" and played a draw with "Rubin".
