Russian State Duma deputy Vitaliy Milonov commented on Aleksandr Sobolev, the forward of the Zenit team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
On Saturday evening, Sobolev scored a goal in the Russian Premier League match against Spartak. The game ended in a 2-2 draw.
According to Milonov, Sobolev is a true Russian athlete who plays well and does not lose himself under pressure. He also criticized those who are making noise against Sobolev, saying they do not know how to run or score goals, they only shout.
The deputy emphasized that national football players do not separate themselves from the team in any situation. It should be noted that after the match against Spartak, Sobolev was criticized by the fans of the Moscow club.
The footballer was insulted and money was shown to him. Aleksandr Sobolev transferred from Spartak to Zenit last summer.
Currently, Zenit is in ninth place in the Russian championship standings.
