Former player of Moscow's Spartak team Valeriy Kechinov expressed his opinion regarding the defeat of the "red-whites" against Makhachkala's Dinamo in the Russian Cup match. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, Dinamo was also an uncomfortable opponent for Spartak last season. Kechinov emphasized that the Spartak team is currently not performing as they did last season, and the team's play is not noticeable.
For reference, the cup match between the "red-whites" and the Makhachkala team took place on August 12 at the Lukoyl Arena stadium. The game ended 1:1 at the end of regular time.
Then, in the penalty shootout, the Dinamo players acted more accurately and won 4:3. Thus, the Dinamo team advanced to the next stage.
Experts believe that the Spartak team's performance is not yet yielding the expected results, and the team needs to improve its game going forward. This result was unexpected for Spartak fans.
