Shinnik Yaroslav v Zenit St Petersburg match preview
By: j | August 17th, 2008Not quite the “match of the day”, it is however one with a array of interesting undercurrents. All eyes will be on Saint Petersburg on whether this is Andrei Arshavin’s final match for Dick Advocaat. However far beyond that, in my opinion, is the excitement of Zenit fighting back for a European spot and the return of Pavel Pogrebnyak to the lineup.

This has all the makings of the end to end offensive flourish that gave Zenit Saint Petersburg the UEFA Cup. Anatoliy Tymoschuk is back to lead the star-studded midfield that includes Viktor Faitzulin, Igor Denisov and Konstantin Zyryanov servicing the striking trio of Pavel Pogrebniak, Fatih Tekke and Andrei Arshavin. The match starts in roughly one hour and I’ll providing a full review after.
