Whistling destruction. Zenit did not give Spartak a chance in the fight for the Super Bowl

Sergei YaremenkoCorrespondent SportAll materialsFootball players of St. Petersburg «Zenith» big beat Moscow «Spartak» in the match for the Super Cup of Russia. The match, which took place on Saturday in St. Petersburg, ended with the victory of «Zenith» with a score of 4:0. Petersburgers scored goals from Ivan Sergeev (29th minute), Malkom (34th), Wendel (46th) and Mateo Cassierra (90+3). . If you support Spartak, then you need to go to the Begovaya station and go to the arena through the Yacht Bridge. And if you are worried about Zenit, then your path should lie through the Krestovsky Ostrov metro station and Primorsky Pobedy Park. It’s beautiful on paper, but it was clear in advance that this scheme would not work in reality. If only because there are Zenit fans who live right behind the Yacht Bridge, and because hardly anyone could prevent guests from Moscow from renting a room in one of the hotels near the park. Perhaps the mixing of flows could lead to conflicts, but all were reconciled by a sudden downpour. At the exit of Begovaya, people with blue-white-blue scarves were hiding from the rain under the same awnings as people with red-white rosettes. Everyone was standing in line for raincoats in the shopping center closest to the stadium. «There are yellow, green and orange ones available,» the saleswoman smiled. Complete color neutrality. Although, perhaps, the red and blue ones were simply taken apart in the first minutes.

Zenit fan banner MakSim and PetkunAfter a super-successful musical experiment at the Russian Cup final in the RFU, they decided to repeat it and involuntarily sent the singer MakSim under decent pressure from the Zenit fan turn. It is unlikely that she ever performed to the whistle of a significant part of the audience. But the ultras girl was not afraid and performed «Do you know?» no weaker than in the «Luzhniki». Moreover, the Spartak sectors strongly supported it. Zenit was represented by the leader of the Dances Minus group, Vyacheslav Petkun, who, as a child, studied at the St. Moreover, Petkun not only sang his hit from the early 2000s «City», but also performed a fan song together with Zenit veterans Konstantin Zyryanov, Valery Tsvetkov and Pavel Pogrebnyak. but one new character from the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro did appear in the stands. The same Brazilian Tomer, who became famous during the 2018 World Cup, suddenly looked into the press box. The author of the obscene meme posed for reporters and disappeared somewhere in the tribune. His Zenit compatriots predictably became the main creatives on the field. Claudinho, Malcolm, Wendel and Douglas Santos tormented Spartak's defenders with inventive positional attacks, but at first it didn't work out with the finishing blow.
