Zenit is UEFA Cup 2008 Champion
As I predicted before, Zenit St. Petersburg from Russia won over Glasgow Rangers at The City of Manchester Stadium last night. The score is 2-0 with goals from Igor Denisov at 72th minute and Konstantin Zyrianov at injury time.
Although played without their top goalgetter Pavel Progebnyak, Zenit took control of the game with Anatoliy Tymoschuk played superbly providing pivot pilot at Zenit's midfield. It's the second cup for Russian clubs in last 4 years.
It seemed Zenit focused in UEFA Cup totally. They don't get impressive result in Russian League; only 14th out of 16 clubs. Four days before the final match in Manchester, Zenit traveled to Holland to play againts AZ Alkmaar, coached by Dick Advocaat's fella Louis van Gaal, on a friendly-test match instead of taking concentration in local league. The match itself ended 2-2 draw. It paid off though. They're a winner now and for next 12 months.
Conratulation Zenit! You deserve it. Or in Russian: Поздравление Зенит! Вы заслуживаете его.
