In the latest round of Russian Premier League, Zenit St. Petersburg scored a goal and conceding one to claim a draw against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roman-Shirokov-c31645, has highlighted that Zenit should have taken their chances and scored
more goals in order to claim the three points at Petrovsky Stadium.

http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Danko-Lazovic-c10188. However, Aleksandr Kerzhakov’s strike in the second half earned them a point.
“I think we deserved more than a draw. We created many chances but did not implement them. If Amkar, at 1-0, would have managed to score the second goal, then it would have been hard to recoup. In the first half, we lacked speed and in the second half, we
created enough chances. It's a shame that we did not manage to score a second goal.” The former FK Rubin Kazan player was quoted as saying.
The former FC Khimki player lamented the performance and rued missed chances against the Red-Blacks by insisting that Zenit displayed some laggard performance in the first half of the match. The Russian Cup winner highlighted that it was a shame to lose
two points in front of the home crowd.
Shirokov assured the fans that Zenit are working hard to overcome their deficiencies and there is still a long way to go until the end of the season. The midfielder believes that Zenit can retain the Russian Premier League title under the leadership of their
head coach, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luciano-c22574 Spalletti.
Zenit are currently at the second spot on the league table, preparing to take on PFK Samara Kryliya Sovetov at Metallurg stadium.
