Stanislav Cherchesov has urged Spartak Moscow to play quality football in the UEFA Champions League match in absence of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Andriy-Dikan-c5993 and Romulo
Terek Grozny head coach, Stanislav Cherchesov, has shared his thoughts about the upcoming UEFA Champions League match between Spartak Moscow and Celtic FC at Luzhniki stadium on Tuesday.
Going into the second group stage game Spartak will be without Romulo, who scored a fantastic goal for the Moscow-based club against the Spanish giants, and Andriy Dikan, who has been in scintillating form at the moment.
The Brazilian has sustained a knee injury while Dikan is still recovering from a shoulder injury he sustained during a routine work out.
And while the sports analysts in Russia are of the view that the Red-whites are likely to struggle without their in-form striker and experienced goalkeeper, Cherchesov has backed the Russian outfit to win the upcoming match in
absence of star players.
The Russian tactician believes that the Myaso have worthy replacements in the squad and urged Unai Emery, who joined the Russian outfit after leaving http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kim-c20955 Kallstrom in
place of the injured attacker.
Cherchesov revealed that although Spartak have no worthy replacement for Dikan, they can rely upon http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergei-Pesyakov-c32970 at this stage of the competition.
The 23-year-old keeper, who joined the Russian outfit from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Rostov-c39192 this summer, marked an excellent debut for the Moscow-based club last week, helping Spartak to win the league tie 3-1 against Amkar Perm.
“I would not talk about personnel losses. Romulo is a very good player, no doubt, but in his position can play Carioca, Kallstrom and de Zeeuw.”
“Spartak cannot replace Dikan at the moment but I think Pesyakov can cope up with the pressure as he the gloves men will try to impress Emery.”
"I think Spartak can only get result if they will demonstrate good football.” The Soviet Cup winner was quoted as saying.
Though Spartak lost the opening group stage game 3-2 against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Barcelona-c39078 at Camp Nou, there displayed an eye-catching performance against the Catalan giants. Cherchesov urged Spartak to continue working hard until they start getting
positive results.
