Luka Dordevic highlights upcoming game against Amkar Perm as Champions League final – Football News
Zenit St. Petersburg striker, Luka Dordevic, has urged his side to play the upcoming Russian Premier League tie against Amkar Perm at Zvezda Stadium on Sunday as if they are playing the UEFA Champions League
final.
“Despite the perception that we are the second, we're going to Perm to win. We're going to play quality football. We know that Amkar needs points (to avoid relegation).
“Speaking personally for myself, I am very hungry to play. If the coach will give me a chance, for me, this match will be as the Champions League final.
“To be honest, I'm not happy with the way I played against Volga. I understand that many players are injured and maybe I will get a chance. Tomorrow will be the final training session, we'll see,” The former
Mogren man was quoted as saying.
The 18-year-old assured the fans of a decent performance on the final away game, saying that the St. Petersburg will win the upcoming game against the Selmashi despite losing the race to retain the league title
this season.
Dordevic is yet to open his goal-scoring account despite playing seven games already this season. The Montenegrin footballer is expected to start the league meetings given that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hulk-c16436 is out injured with a fresh
injury.
The 6 ft 1 in tall attacker went on to admit that he needs to improve his game if he wants more first team action.
The Meshki were denied a chance to lift the prestigious domestic trophy for the third time in a row after CSKA Moscow clinched their fourth league title since the inception of the Premier League.
The St. Petersburg club have been unfortunate to lose in the race despite claiming more points during the last two months as compared to Leonid Slutsky’s troops. As things stand, they are at the second-spot with
60 points and trailing the top spot by just three points.
Zenit will not be considered as the champions even if they win and CSKA lose their final game given that the Moscow-based club have recorded more wins ever since the season has started.
