Hi Guys! Today starts the Russian Championship 2018/2019, with which I congratulate all the fans of this game!

Now I will write about Spartak Moscow. I'm also a fan of the team;)

It would seem that it can solve one match in the long championship, and even the very first? Ahead is a long distance, on which everything can still be remedied to anyone. But it seemed that “Spartak” spoiled the previous season of the Premier League ... already in the first round.

It was a memorable game with Dynamo, in which the defending champion ripped the countrymen in the first half, making an application for a repeat of the championship. However, immediately after the break, the team Massimo Carrera withdrew it, for some reason, leaving the game and missing the victory in the last seconds.

And this turned out all season. Probably, you can count a dozen matches in which the “red and white” started out perfectly, but lost the initiative and lost points in the end. So they flew out of the Champions League, twice not holding 1-0 in the games against the modest “Maribor”. And, of course, the classic is the loss of Dynamo in the last round, as a result of which the second unexpectedly finished "CSKA".

The consequences of the final failure of “Spartak” will be raked this summer. Instead of focusing on the championship and trying to create a reserve before the start in the Champions League, Muscovites will be forced to spend four “extra” matches in the qualification, and this is at best if the first opponent passes. They, as is known, will be either the Greek PAOK or the Swiss “Basel”. It seems nothing terrible, but if you remember this “Maribor” ...

However, the new season “Spartak” begins one of the two main favorites. Who is the second? Of course, “Zenit”, which is actually the first. “Lokomotiv” runs the risk of encountering post-championships syndrome. "CSKA" throws a completely new team into battle. The composition of “Krasnodar” does not hold out to the title for quality. So, “Spartak” or “Zenit”? Let it be for now.

In the transfer market, “Spartak” made two significant acquisitions. Successfully completed the campaign to draw from the “Dynamo” Alexander Tashayev, which should create serious competition for Alexander Samedov on the right flank (in fact, he must win it). Instead of the Serdar Taski who left for Turkey, the French defender Samuel Gigot was bought from Ghent.

Perhaps, Ivelin Popov will go to Turkey, but while he is in the team after returning from a six-month lease in Kazan. Returned to their clubs Mario Pashalich and Nikola Maksimovich, left perplexed by the level of their game in Spartak last season.

The current championship is another chance for Spartak. No one is stronger than him in the Premier League. The power of “Zenit” does not seem huge anymore. From "CSKA" remained only managerial talent Eugene Giner. Even “Tosno” — Spartak's nightmare of recent years — disappeared from the path. It would seem, how on it is possible not to pass triumphally?

“Orenburg” returned to the Premier League one year after the departure from it. He did it very confidently, almost without losing points in the second half of the championship and eventually becoming the first in the FNL. The club seemed to have no doubt that he could do this way again, and immediately collected the skeleton with which they would like to play in the elite division. And today they will finally do it.

Of course, in the off-season this skeleton was strengthened. It is very advantageous to purchase goalkeeper Alexander Dovbni. Last season, this man in gloves had two brilliant matches, beating off a couple of hundred hits on target in matches with Spartak, a dozen of them were “dead.” In other matches for "Khabarovsk SKA" Dovbnya was less convincing and made a lot of mistakes, but today he is playing with his favorite client ...

Orlya Kulishev, the best scorer of the last championship of the FNL, became the player of "Orenburg". 17 goals in 38 matches — the result, frankly, not outstanding, but it turned out that no one in this league more often did not score. Played Kulishev for the St. Petersburg “Dynamo”, which is now Sochi.

“Spartak” — “Orenburg”: full-time confrontation

“Spartak” won against “Orenburg”, both matches in the year before last, scoring in each of three balls. The most memorable was the second, held in Moscow. Then Roman Zobnin made a double, and Quincy Promes scored the winning goal in the 95th minute.
