Football!

Yes, yesterday's match was great. Congratulations to all Zenit fans. I really liked that the team didn't give up after conceding a goal :smile20:, they held on and made it to halftime. The second half was a completely different game. It could have been 2-1 or 1-2, so I think 1-1 is a fair result. The impact of Advocaat is obvious. I envy them. I think Tymoshchuk was the best player in the match for Zenit. He was everywhere in 90% of the cases. In light of the return match, I am concerned about two things. The hole in the center of defense (even the fact that Tymoshchuk played almost as a third central defender didn't always help), and the presence of Luca Toni in the return match. He is the best at Bayern at exploiting the lack of coordination between the opposing center-back pair. The absence of Arshavin is also a certain problem, but not as critical as the above. The return match will be even more difficult, but that makes it more interesting. Good luck to Zenit in the return match. (This day will be a victory:smile44:)
