Movsisyan is ordinary forward – Russian football analyst

My view is not based on one game; Hulk is better than Movsisyan, stated Russian football analyst and former player Evgeny Lovchev. 

Lovchev drew a comparison between Armenian national football squad and FC Spartak Moscow forward Yura Movsisyan, and Brazil international and FC Zenit Saint Petersburg striker Hulk.

“Hulk is a European-level star, whereas Movsisyan is an ordinary forward. The Zenit players permit him [i.e., Hulk] to play like that.

“There is no team there that can explain the Brazilian that he needs to play with the team, and not alone,” Sovetski Sport quotes Lovchev as saying.   

To note, owing to Yura Movsisyan’s hat-trick, Spartak defeated Zenit, and by a score of 4-2, in Sunday’s Russian Premier League match. In turn Hulk scored a goal for his club, but he could not convert a penalty at the crucial moment.
