Russian League returns to competition: Wilmar Barrios’ Zenit plays against Valeri Karpin on Saturday | Colombians Abroad

Very good news for Wilmar Barrios and the Colombian National Team. The Russian soccer league resumed this Friday, after more than two months of winter break, with the victory of a modest one, Rotor, over another, Tambov (1-3).

In this way, the newly promoted Rotor of Volgograd climbed to 13th place and further sank Tambov, which is the red lantern of the classification.

The leader, Zenit, where the Cartagena midfielder plays, who is four points ahead of the second, CSKA Moscow, receives on Saturday Valeri Karpin’s Rostov, who is fifth.

Precisely the game of the current league champion continues to raise many doubts and, in fact, he was eliminated this week in the round of 16 of the Russian Cup by Arsenal.

The club sponsored by the Gazprom consortium will not be able to count on Brazilian Malcom, who was injured during the winter preseason. The former Barcelona player, who turned 24 today, will be absent for several weeks after damaging his knee during a friendly match against the Jordanian team.
