CSKA drew with Anzhi this weekend and are now 11 points adrift of Zenit St Petersburg, the reigning champions.
“Well, Zenit aren’t officially the champions yet, although, of course, Luciano Spalletti’s team are very close to winning their second title in a row. As regards us, we’ll fight to the end. And the upcoming game in St. Petersburg is extremely important for CSKA from any perspective.”
