Famous commentator Gennady Orlov, as a fan of the "Zenit" team, expressed his opinion about the attacking midfielder Maksim Glushenkov of the St. Petersburg club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
In the match between "Zenit" and "CSKA" held on Sunday, Glushenkov was substituted in the 84th minute. Prior to that, he had been replaced after the first half in the Premier League game.
According to Orlov, head coach Sergey Semak is right to leave Glushenkov out of the starting lineup. He stated that after coming onto the field, Glushenkov wasted two attacks and made two inaccurate passes.
The first pass went to an opponent's player, while the second reached his teammate in an awkward manner. These situations hindered the team's ability to effectively finish their attacks.
Recently, Maksim Glushenkov's father also gave an interview, stating that if his son leaves the field after the first half every time, he might consider transferring to another club. It is worth noting that "Zenit" played against "CSKA" at home, and the match ended in a 1:1 draw.
This result was not what "Zenit" fans and the team expected.
