Zenit newcomer Roman Shirokov is dreaming of winning
the first title in his career and he will have a chance to put his dreams
into reality on Sunday as his club will meet the Russia Cup holders Lokomotiv.
"I am close to winning my first serious trophy in my career as we
open the season with such a big game", said Shirokov to Sport Express.
"I have no doubts that this match will boost the whole Russian championship
and I believe it's impossible to compare such games with friendlies."
"The Supercup game was a breath-taking event last year and it was
followed by the thrilling Premier Liga campaign."
"I am sure that every player would be very glad to win such a prestigious
trophy for himself and his club."
"I hope that Sunday match will bring Zenit one more title and I will
manage to seal my first serious victory."
"Though Lokomotiv had an up-and-down campaign last season I believe
they will show their fighting spirit and will become much stronger."
"Zenit players get too many yellow and red cards in recent games,
however the psychological situation inside the team is perfect."
"Dick Advocaat asked us to keep calm and try to avoid cards, but
my partners and I understand it."
