Nicolas Lombaerts admits Zenit St. Petersburg need to focus on attacking reinforcements
Zenit St. Petersburg defender, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Amkar-Perm-c39067 in their last Russian Premier League encounter and has insisted that the Meshki are in a need of some attacking reinforcements to bolster the team
attack.
The Russian defender was speaking to the media ahead of the Krylia Sovetov Samara clash.
The visiting team managed to score early in the first half but Zenit managed to score an equalizer to end the match on level pegging. Lombaerts has lamented the points dropped in front of the home crowd and rued missed opportunities against the Navozniki.
“It's hard to find an explanation as to why you cannot score more. Of course, we need to believe that things are going to get better. But we should not let pressure get to us again,” the UEFA Cup winner was quoted as saying.
The former KAA Gent player revealed that Amkar played deep defensively in order to claim a draw away from home. The Belgian stopper highlighted that Zenit created enough chances in the second half but they failed to claim a win at Petrovsky Stadium due to
lack of enough fire power upfront.
The Russian Cup winner highlighted that Zenit are preparing hard for their upcoming league encounter against the Perya and assured the fans that they are going to snatch the three points away from home in order to move closer to the league leaders, CSKA
Moscow.
Zenit managed to get a win against the Zelyono-belo-sinie earlier this season where they won 3-0. The Belgian defender believes that Zenit are looking forward to a similar display against them.
Lombaerts admitted that Zenit are struggling upfront and they need to focus on that area. Zenit have managed to score only six goals in their least six matches. The Meshki head coach, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luciano-c22574 Spalletti, himself admitted that he is looking into the transfer
market for players.
