The match between Spartak and Zenit in the fifth round of the RPL, held on August 16, ended with a score of 2:2. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
Sergey Semak, head coach of the Saint Petersburg club, shared his thoughts on the result of this match. According to him, the team's defense is not their strongest side, and they are conceding many simple goals.
In the second half, the team tried to change their tactics, but the process of players being sent off by the opponent hindered the execution of their plans. Achieving a draw with fewer players on the field is good, but it does not fully satisfy the team.
Additionally, the coach expressed gratitude to the fans for the warm atmosphere created at the Lukoil Arena. The team has now reached six points this season.
After five matches, Zenit is in eighth place in the Russian championship standings.
