  The time has come to September! With the re-ignition of major leagues in the European continent, the Russian Super League, which is not a new year’s league, is gradually coming to an end!

   The 25th round of the Russian Premier League!

   Zenit St. Petersburg will face his old opponent, CSKA Moscow on the main scene!

   Zenit, who has won five consecutive victories in the league, has completely left second place Sparta Moscow behind.

   There are 6 rounds left in the league, 18 points ahead of second place! In this focus battle, Zenit can win the 2007 Russian Premier League as long as he is undefeated!

The championship trophy has been transported to St. Petersburg by officials of the Russian Football Association before the game. As long as Zenit is unbeaten in this game, or Sparta Moscow cannot win in another field after 2 hours, the championship trophy will be engraved with Zenit’s name. !

   Today, the whole of St. Petersburg is empty, everyone is on the scene, in front of the TV, in the bar, and even in the square, watching the live broadcast of the game!

   The last time St. Petersburg Zenit won the top league championship, it also dates back to 1984. He won the 84-year Soviet league championship during the Soviet era. St. Petersburg was also called Leningrad at that time!

“The last time the two sides played against each other, the points of the top group were still staggered, and the points of several teams were very anxious! But in the 13 rounds after that game, Zenit seemed to be opened up. 12 wins, in one fell swoop laid a huge advantage in this season’s championship!”

   “Especially in the past 3 rounds, due to the distraction of Sparta Moscow in the UEFA Champions League qualifiers, they suffered 3 rounds of invincibility in the league. The original 11-point gap was opened to 18 points in a blink of an eye!”

“5 consecutive victories in the league, plus 3 consecutive victories in the Europa League qualifiers! Zenit missed the match at Yang Feng, lost to Dynamo Moscow, and regained 8 consecutive victories in all competitions! Last week It was in the first round of the final qualifying round and easily defeated the visiting Belgian giants standard Liege 3-0. This shows how hot the state is!”

   “Zenit, who is in good condition, will lose the chance to win the cup 5 rounds in advance at this home court? I believe no one will think so! Even if the opponent is the Russian Super League champion last season”

   “The visiting team’s poor league record this season is due to their weak away record! In 11 league away games, CSKA Moscow only won 1 game, and today, in St. Petersburg, preventing the fiery Zenit from winning early?”

   “Think of a way to defend the tie and be a more face-to-face background board. It may be the most realistic idea of ​​the visiting team right now!”

   “The game started! Although there is a big gap in points between the two sides, the visiting team is the champion team of the previous two seasons after all, and the background still exists. Zenit has to face it with a 100% attitude!”

   “CSKA Moscow obviously doesn’t want to be the background board for Zenit’s home win!”

   “As soon as the game started, we took the lead in attacking Zenit!”

   “Looking at the positions of Pogrebnyak and Arshavin in the frontcourt, they still have the same tactics in the previous game. They move freely in the frontcourt and harass the opponent’s defense line!”

   “Ed Wo Carter, is not going to defend a tie for the championship!”

   “The two sides finally fought against each other this time!”

   “Pogrebnyak!”

   “Get the first chance to kick!”

   “With the visiting team leading the way and failing to achieve a goal, Zenit’s first counterattack created a sufficient threat!”

   “Thanks to Akinfeev’s excellent performance, facing Boshen’s high-quality long-range shot, he steadily blocked the ball and hugged it!”

“The main factor that has contributed to the disadvantage of CSKA Moscow’s away points this season is that there are too many counterattack opportunities for opponents when attacking, averaging 1.5 away goals per game. For a team of this level, Is unacceptable!”

   “Insufficient interception in the midfield, and the entire defensive line is not a speed-type player who is good at chasing back! It caused the opponent’s counterattack to strike a precise situation!”

   “If it were not for Akinfeev’s outstanding performance, the CSKA’s performance might be even worse!”

  ………………

   “Up to now, in the face of the increasingly tacit cooperation between Skrtel and Yang Feng, the visiting team’s offensive opportunities are so pitiful!”

   “Except for Zhirkov’s long shot, which is still a threat to Malafeyev, the passing of the visiting team can hardly penetrate into the penalty area, resulting in a shot in the penalty area!”

“The two strikers Joao and Lowe were stared at by Skrtel and Yang Feng in the penalty area, especially Joao. After half a season of growth, Yang Feng dealt with this kind of forward without a strong body. , Has begun to occupy a great advantage!”

   “This time, CSKA is not obsessed with infiltration, but directly chooses the side to play the ball directly, but without tactical cooperation, it directly plays the side long pass. The quality of the pass is worrying!”

   “This ball, Yang Feng directly headed the ball out!”

   “Petrov, who was about to take the spot outside the penalty area, was slipped by Tymoshchuk! The ball was broken!”

   “Zenit’s counterattack opportunity!”

   “Arshavin, who retreated to the center circle before to participate in the defense, received the pass from Tymoshchuk, started directly and drove the ball towards the opponent’s half…”

   “The visiting team dragged Ignacevic at the end and chose to move quickly from the left side of the defense zone to the middle!”

   “When Arshavin ran a few steps with the ball just after halftime! Ignašević, rushed out from his side, directly opposite his foot!”

   “The ball popped out of the boundary!”

   “But Pogrebnyak, it’s there!”

   “Since the entire half-time was a 2-on-2 situation, Vasily Berezuski could only choose to retreat and prepare for the breakthrough of Boshen in the face of a huge gap!”

   “But Boshen, directly chose to pass the ball!”

   “A long-distance pass!”

   “Pass directly to the opponent’s large restricted area!”

   “After Arshavin was intercepted by Ignacevic, he did not stop in place, but continued to run forward!”

   “Ignacevic behind him is constantly waving his hands to the referee to be offside!”

“However, Ignašević must have thought he was a trailing defender. In fact, Vasily, on the right side of the court, has been retreating continuously and has become the backmost central defender because he wants to prevent the space for Boshen’s breakthrough. , Arshavin did not fall into an offside trap!”

“good chance!”

   “Kick the door in the restricted area!”

   “Ignacevic tried his best to catch up to the position and directly chose the sliding shovel to block the angle!”

   “But…”

   “Fake action! Arshavin seems to be volleying directly after the ball hits the ground!”

   “But at the last moment~www.wuxiax.com~ he took the rounded leg back, stopped the ball and spiked!”

   “I deducted Ignacevic and faced goalkeeper Akinfeev, a single-handed chance at such a close position! Arshavin!”

   “Aim at the far corner!”

   “Goal scored! Arshavin! First record for Zenit! Zenit is one step closer to the Russian Premier League championship!”

   The stadium is boiling, and tens of thousands of spectators in the stadium can’t wait to sing “We are the champions!”

   In the square outside the stadium, no tickets were purchased. The fans who gathered to watch the big screen were also singing and dancing!

   In front of their own TV, countless families are also dancing happily!

   Even the vodka sales in the bar have soared with this goal!

   This is a night for the people of St. Petersburg. They are getting closer and closer to the championship!

“Perfect body control, at the last moment when the shooting action is completed, forcibly changing the body’s width and the angle of the foot to the ball, turning the shot into a reverse stop, directly slamming the old-fashioned Ignacevic !”

   “Arshavin once again used his highlight performance to lead the team to victory. Oh no, this time, to lead the team to the championship trophy!”

   “The game time is 21 minutes, Zenit is at home, and the visiting CSKA is 1-0!”

“If the visiting team really wants to hit the field, it will have to win at least 2 goals in the next game. In the past few months, Zenit has scored more than 2 goals in the only game and the only loss in that game. The ball, lost to Dynamo Moscow, cut off the winning streak, look at the CSKA, with Yang Feng and Skrtel sitting in the back at the same time, can they break Zenit with two goals?”
