“Torpedo” still cannot win in the RPL, the “black and white” have five defeats and one draw, they are in the last, 16th place in the standings. On Thursday, head coach Alexander Borodyuk, as well as president Denis Maslov and sports director Maxim Lyapin left the club. The team is led by Nikolai Kovardaev, but due to his lack of the necessary coaching license, the post of head coach is occupied by Nikolai Savichev.
In the next round, Zenit will play with Ural on August 28 in Yekaterinburg, and Torpedo will host Krasnodar on the same day.
