Andrey Arshavin: “I hope the first team do the same as the Gazprom Academy side and win the title”
“I want to congratulate Zenit U19s on winning the YFL-1. It’s important to point out that it was a tough season, especially for the coaching staff as they had to start off without some top players, but they went through the first half of the season with confidence. Speaking of the spring, the situation became even worse, the players who were helping the team get points for so long left, and every match was a real challenge. Though young players like Bardachev and Obonin joined the team, and it was proved right to promote them. This team has shown not only its skills, but also their strong will, they kept going forward even when things weren’t in their favor. I want to thank our guys again and congratulate them on winning this title. Andrey Arshavin: “I hope the first team do the same as the Gazprom Academy side and win the title”
