Vladimir Ponomaryov, a veteran of CSKA Moscow and the former USSR national team, criticized Spartak's defense during the match between Spartak and Lokomotiv in the fourth round of the Russian championship. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, it is impossible to achieve a solid result with Babich in the defense. Ponomaryov stated that such a defense is not strong, but rather weak and easily broken through.
It should be noted that Spartak lost to Lokomotiv away with a score of 2:4. This match took place on August 9, Saturday.
Following this result, Spartak accumulated only four points after four rounds and is currently in the lower half of the league table. The club has not been able to show stable results in recent matches.
Experts and fans are focusing on the problems in the team's defense. Spartak needs to work on the defensive mistakes to improve their game going forward.
At the same time, the coaching staff should also consider making changes to the lineup. It is important for each player to fully understand their responsibility and actively participate on the field to improve the team's results.
