MOSCOW, December 10 The best football player of the USSR 1972, bronze Olympic medalist Evgeny Lovchev believes that the head coach of Spartak Moscow, Guillermo Abascal, should finalize the season with the “red-whites”, after which the team management needs to draw conclusions based on the results of the championship.
Spartak, after 18 matches, is in fifth place in the Russian Championship standings, gaining 30 points.
“
"Spartak" I played very unevenly in this part of the season, there were many defeats, there was no stability. In the spring for «Spartak» It will be interesting to watch — the team is not suffering, it will compete for prizes. But the main thing is that we need to analyze why there is no stability, what prevents us from rising higher in the table and not failing like we did in the fall, when we lost not only to the leading Krasnodar; and «Zenith», but also Voronezh, «Akhmat» and “Wings,” Lovchev wrote in his Telegram channel.
“»There are a lot of questions despite the fact that the team’s play is interesting to watch. A top team cannot play like this — one match is good, the second is very good, and then several in a row — very bad. Swing — delighted with one game, but spits with the second. What to do with Abascal? We need to let the season finish — the work must be completed, and draw conclusions it’s necessary based on the results,” he added.
Abascal is 34 years old and has been working at the Moscow club since June 2022. In the 2022/23 season, the “red-whites” won bronze medals in the Russian Championship.
