Pessayakov: Hope Spartak Immediately Takes Over Leadership

"Spartak have won the Cup and put in a good performance overall this spring. Can you say they are back?". Pessayakov replied, "We discussed this yesterday. Whenever we talk about Spartak, we always consider them as competitors in the hunt for the title. I hope they can take over this leadership soon."
"But now they already have the trophy," said the interviewer.
Pessayakov explained, "I think this also happened with Stankovic. But now they already have the trophy."
"Yes, that's right. There's no need to say much here - the trophy itself speaks. This is the best indicator. A good end to the season and a trophy. It's as if Spartak is at the top again," said Pessayakov in an interview with "Championat" journalist Ilya Nikulnikov.
