Zenit hosted Sochi in St. Petersburg. The St. Petersburg team in the first half hit Soslan Dzhanaev's goal twice: Vyacheslav Karavaev opened the scoring, and in the 24th minute the Barnaul midfielder once again demonstrated his scoring instinct and scored a goal similar to the one he sent to Spartak in the previous game championship. For Erokhin, this goal was the fourth of the season and the second in the last two matches.
In the second half, Erokhin was replaced by newcomer Wendel. As a result, Zenit won 3: 1, Erokhin's goal was victorious, and experts from Match TV named Alexander the best player of the match. Conclusion Alexander should be released more often in the starting lineup of Zenit
