“Zenit” lost “Monaco” with a score of 0: 2 and went into the Europa League – Fontanka

 Just completed the last round match of the group stage of the Champions League “Monaco” – “Zenith”. The home team won with the score 2: 0.

 Blue-white-blue began meeting more actively. Almost the entire first half they spent in the attack, allowing the opponent to make a couple of timid attacks. Nevertheless particularly dangerous moments of St. Petersburg could not create.

 After the break the game was turned on its head. Footballers “Monaco” is not just leveled the game, but gradually began to clean up the initiative in their hands. As a result, this has led to the fact that in the 64th minute after a free kick defender Abdennura, almost without encountering some resistance, sent the ball into the net “Zenith».

 St. Petersburg head coach Andre Villas-Boas tried to change the game to substitute Faizulin Shatova, but it revived the charge from a while and certainly not fix the problem in the defense.

 After 88 minutes, Fabinho finally put paid to hopes of “Zenith” of reaching the playoffs of the Champions League. As in the first case to hit the ball, none of the blue-white-blue does not interfere.

 The result – 2: 0 in favor of “Monaco”. Guests go further, and “Zenith” is content with only the League of Europe.
