The head coach of Zenit Sergei Semak spoke about the preparations for the match of the 2nd round of the group stage of the Champions League against Malmo.
- What do Azmun and Dziuba mean to you?
- They are very important players for us. There are matches where they play together there are matches where they play separately. These are our top scorers, we have no doubt that each of them will help us. This is good for the coaching staff. There is variation that we can apply when preparing for different matches.
- Massimiliano Allegri said that the matches with Zenit will be key. How do you react to this?
- I think he meant that the matches with us will be at the equator of the group stage, play-offs often determine the places in the table. I think he wanted to say about the location, and not about who is the favorite. The favorite of the group is Chelsea, the winner of the tournament. But no one doubts the strength of Juventus either.
The Zenit - Malmo match will take place on September 29 at the stadium in St. Petersburg and will start at 19.45 Moscow time.
