UEFA Cup: "Parma" - CSKA 0: 0

The Moscow CSKA began the struggle with the Italian Parma for a ticket to the final of the UEFA football Cup. At the Annio Tardini stadium, the audience did not see the spectators in Parma.

On the eve of this fight, army football players received rest from continuous matches - the leadership of the Premier League, apparently, took into account the claims of the army and postponed two matches with their participation at once . The Parmesanians have a more stressful schedule - the club fights for survival in the A. Ruver, the Italian mentor Pietro Karminyani has repeatedly stated that the UEFA Cup for Parma is not a priority task, and promised (and fulfilled a promise) to rest the team’s leaders in the match against the army.

However, the Parma coach spoke in the same spirit and before the quarterfinal confrontation with the Austrian Austria. As a result, the so -called understudy without a twinge of conscience left the best team of Austria overboard the UEFA Cup.

- Before the match

Army mentor Valery Gazzaev released only one striker in the starting lineup. The main strike force of the army was represented by Croatian striker Ivitsa Olich, who was designed to support the attacking midfielder Daniel Carvalia from the depths of the field. Brazilian striker Wagner Love and midfielder Rolan Gusev began a match on the bench. The Parma did not contain the main scorer of the team Alberto Gilardino.

The match was served by the Swiss arbitrators, led by Massimo Buzakka, the appointment of which last fall became a good sign for our teams: CSKA, during its judge, outplayed Paris Saint -Germain - 2: 0, and the Russian national team defeated Estonia - 4: 0.

The meeting began in a calm manner, but the army team tried to inflate the pace. The explosive flank attacks of CSKA and the leisurely reloading of the hosts, with subsequent non -zero canopies, gave the game a torn rhythm. In addition, rivals were often mistaken in the programs, losing the ball.

After checking the Parmesans for strength, the wards of Gazzaev switched to a calculating positional game, capturing the center of the field. Attempts by the hosts to create a threat to Akinfeev’s gates with long casts into the penalty area without apparent efforts were suppressed - the army team completely controlled the game on the “second floor”.

Gradually, Muscovites lost their territorial advantage, allowing Parme to visit their half in their half. The owners fulfilled several standards that did not lead to anything. CSKA also did not create moments, playing across the field with a clear emphasis on defense. Rare attempts to get to the penalty area "Parma" either knitted in the tight protection of the Parmesans, or ended with inaccurate translation of the ball.

During the news there, the rivals there never created a real threat to someone else's gate, and under the whistle of dissatisfied stands went to the locker room. CSKA, this game “without a gate”, in principle, arranged, but there was practically no chance of scoring a ball in a foreign field and create a handicap before a response meeting in Moscow in such conditions. Without Wagner, the attack of the army men looked extremely toothless.

After the break, CSKA again indicated their positional claims to the center of the field, but the drawing of the game of cardiac changes did not undergo. The sluggish attempts of the guests to inflate the pace only added rigidity to martial arts. The ball practically did not leave the central zone.

In the tenth minute of the second half, the Muscovites played the penalty area, taking Ignashevich to blow. However, the combinations, familiar to the fans in the match with Benfica, did not work - the captain of the army soldiers sent the ball to the stands with a cannon shot.

A few minutes later, Wagner Love entered the game, to whom Krasich lost his place on the field. The army team tried to press the owners to their gates, but Parma immediately snapped a counterattack. Vignaroli almost brought Sorrentino one on one with Akinfeev, but the goalkeeper discharged the situation, confidently playing at the exit. Then Vignaroli himself decided on a powerful blow from 20 meters.

The voltage in the match began to increase in proportion to the remaining time, but still did not reach the downward level. The mentor of Parmesantsev leveled the game, strengthening the attack of his team with a replacement. Gazzaev, on the other hand, released on the field instead of the tired olich midfielder Yuris Lizans. Opponents played more acutely, but managed to avoid mistakes. The whistle of Massimo Buzakki recorded a zero draw.

The response fight will take place on May 5 in Moscow. To enter the UEFA CSKA Cup final, it is enough to win in your field with a minimum score.

For another ticket to Lisbon, Portuguese Sporting and the Dutch Alkmar are parallel. In the first match, the Portuguese in their field won a strong -willed victory with a score of 2: 1.

In the end of the first half, the teams exchanged the goals scored: at the ass of the captain of Alkmar, Denny Lanzate, the hosts later responded in a minute in the exact blow of the Cameroon striker Rudolf Dual. The author of the victorious ball at the 80th minute of the meeting was the young Chilean forward of Sporting Maurisio Pinilla.
