CSKA defeated Krasnodar 3-0 in the first leg of the Russian Cup quarterfinal
CSKA defeated Krasnodar in the first match of the quarterfinals of the Russian Cup. This is reported by the correspondent of “Lenta.ru”.
The meeting was held in Moscow and ended with the score 3:0. As part of the army team, Russian forwards Fedor Chalov and Anton Zabolotny, as well as Brazilian defender Moizes, distinguished themselves.
The second meeting of the teams within the 1/4 finals of the Cup of the country will be held on February 28 in Krasnodar. The confrontation will begin at 19:30 Moscow time.
The current owner of the Cup of Russia is Spartak Moscow. CSKA in the 2021/2022 season dropped out of the fight for the trophy at the quarterfinal stage, losing to the red and white.
On February 17, Chalov told how his views on communication with the media have changed after moving to Europe. The athlete noted that he became more open after playing in the Swiss Basel in 2022. “In Russia, it seems to me, they are afraid to seem ridiculous, awkward. The reaction is: “Why do you stand out? Are you Messi, or something, to give an interview?” And there is no such thing abroad, everyone is open,” he said.
