Zoran Tosic urges CSKA Moscow to forget UEFA Champions League defeat against Real Madrid and concentrate on the Russian Premier League tie against Spartak Moscow
Real Madrid cruised past CSKA Moscow to book their place in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals with a 5-2 aggregate win in the round-of-16. Though the Russian outfit claimed a late equalizer against Los Blancos at Luzhniki
stadium, they failed to stop the Spanish, conceding 4 goals at Santiago Bernabeu.
In the aftermath of the outcome, CSKA winger, Zoran Tosic, has lamented their latest European defeat, revealing that the Moscow-based club failed to take their chances.
Tosic, who scored the only goal for the Armeytsy during the return leg, revealed that things would have been different had http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alan-Dzagoev-c4249 taken their chances during the European encounter.
The Russian Cup winner expressed his delight after scoring against Real, admitting that the goal has given him a lot of confidence. He assured the fans of similar performances during the remaining games.
He went on to praise the Real goalkeeper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Iker-Casillas-c16815, admitting that the Copa del Rey winner was terrific on the pitch. Tosic admitted that CSKA have been unlucky at times and lamented their cancelled-out goal during the second
period.
Dzagoev came close to scoring the equalizer for the Russian outfit during the second half but he was caught offside. Tosic urged his teammates to forget the humiliating defeat against the Spanish outfit and tipped them to concentrate
on the third Russian Premier League round.
There’s little arguing that CSKA are very much in the mix to win the league title this season. Though they have started the third league round on a low by drawing their first two league games, they are just 6 points adrift of the
top spot.
The Koni drew 1-1 against Dynamo Moscow before settling for a point in a 2-2 stalemate against Zenit St. Petersburg at home. CSKA will now play the upcoming crunch league encounter against Spartak Moscow away from home.
