Before this, the Yaroslavl team alternated draws and defeats at their home stadium.
The last time the “black and blues” pleased their fans with a home victory in the championship was on September 9, beating Novorossiysk “Chernomorets” with a score of 2:1. Since it was cut off. Although in the spring part of the season, Dmitry Cheryshev’s team performs well on the road. The Yaroslavl team won the previous match in Nizhnekamsk.
On April 28, Saratov Sokol arrived in Yaroslavl. The team is close to the relegation zone, but it was not easy for Shinnik, an outsider, either. The hosts’ defender Maxim Polyakov scored the decisive goal in the 89th minute.
“What emotions do I feel? Emptiness. Today we created chances, but there was no clarity or confidence. We tried, but didn’t show a great game. There is one positive thing that makes me happy. We started playing strictly on the defensive. A house is built from the stove, rigor and discipline are important. Polyakov’s needed goal brought us three points. It is very important”,— Shinnik head coach Dmitry Cheryshev said after the match.
This success allowed the Yaroslavl team to return to the top ten of the First League standings. “Shinnik” is now 9th with 40 points in the treasury and 13 points in reserve from outsiders. By the way, the team in fourth is only 7 points away. So the Yaroslavl team didn’t lose their chances for play-offs with Premier League teams.
