St. Petersburg, July 9, Taras Barabash. Member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and a longtime fan of the Moscow football club «Spartak» Shamil Tarpishchev said that the level of skill of the players of St. Petersburg «Zenith» should affect the game with the «red-whites» for the Russian Super Cup. The meeting will be held on July 9 in St. Petersburg, beginning — 19 :00 Moscow time The reigning champion of Russia Zenit will play at the home stadium with the owner of the Russian Cup, Moscow Spartak. I don’t expect anything from Spartak in the upcoming match. «Let's see what the new head coach comes up with for this game. I think it's possible to come up with something interesting, even though Spartak's squad is much more limited than Zenit's. It's interesting to see how Abascal shoots, how he starts. I think that the result of the Super Bowl is not of great importance, but it will be a spectacular meeting in nature,» Tarpishchev said.
