Alexander GovorovSport correspondentAll materialsThe main football scandal of the summer is finally over. Spartak, which for a long time threatened to boycott the match for the Russian Super Cup, nevertheless decided to come to St. Petersburg and play with Zenit. Muscovites caved in, but now they have at their disposal a win-win card. Zarema and the boycott The victory of Spartak in the Russian Cup gave rise to a chain of events that everyone followed with great interest. The red-and-whites got the right to play with Zenit in the match for the country's Super Bowl. Immediately there was information that the meeting point of the two teams with a high degree of probability will be St. Petersburg. Spartak offered to transfer the game to Luzhniki or to a neutral field, but did not receive support. As a result, the club hinted in every possible way at a boycott. Zarema Salikhova, the wife of Spartak owner Leonid Fedun, was especially zealous. The red and white media service supported the flash mob and filmed videos with the message of a possible refusal to participate in the Super Bowl. And the banal news that midfielder Quincy Promes will regain number 10 was announced with the following words: «Boycott all your affairs.»
