Luciano Spalletti was embarrassed of facing Zenit St. Petersburg fans after his side struggled to win the group stage game in the UEFA Champions League
Defending Russian Premier League champions, Zenit St. Petersburg, recorded their first home defeat in the UEFA Champions League’s ongoing campaign against AC Milan on Wednesday.
Though the Meshki managed to find an equalizer after conceding two goals in the first-half, they failed to record their first win in the European tournament after scoring an own goal late in the game.
The St. Petersburg club remain at the bottom-spot on their respective group table after recording another loss after their opening day defeat against Spanish giants, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Barcelona-c39078, at Camp Nou.
In aftermath of the outcome, Luciano Spalletti has expressed his dissatisfaction over the result and discussed the growing problems in the team after a series of unacceptable results in the league.
The feud started when http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Igor-Denisov-c16694 refused to play the league match against Krylia Sovetov Samara last month, saying that he will only make himself present on the field if he will be given as much as other players are earning in
the team.
The Russian midfielder pointed towards the St. Petersburg club’s newbie’s, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Axel-Witsel-c7029.
"I'm very upset and worried for the players, the fuss going on in the team and for those who came to the stadium to support us.”
“We started the match badly after conceding two goals inside 20 minutes. We failed to control the game despite playing at home. However, my team responded well and scored two goals. We were unlucky to concede the third goal.”
“I am very upset with my point of view, we did not deserve defeat.” The former AS http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 manager was quoted as saying.
The Italian tactician blamed luck for the latest defeat, saying that they conceded the third goal when http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Aleksandr-Anyukov-c4549 was receiving medical treatment on the sidelines.
Zenit will now lock horns with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/RSC-Anderlecht-c40394 at Petrovsky stadium before going head to head with FC Krasnodar and Kuban Krasnodar in the domestic league.
