“Zenith” in the minority kept a draw with “Akhmat” in Grozny

The match of the fourth round of the Russian Football Championship between Zenit and Akhmat in Grozny ended in a draw. The teams failed to score a single goal.

Already at the end of the first half, the St. Petersburg club remained in the minority – goalkeeper Daniil Odoevsky knocked down the attacker from Akhmat Lechi Sadulaev outside the penalty area, for which he received a red card. Instead, Mikhail Kerzhakov entered the field, replacing midfielder Andrei Mostovoy. However, even this did not help the hosts to score a goal against Zenit.

Together with Odoevsky, the St. Petersburg team represented Cassier, Mostovoy, Santos, Claudinho, who was injured during the game, Malcolm, Wendel, Sutormin and Barrios, as well as Lovren and Rodrigao.
