MOSCOW, April 3 (RIA Novosti) - Zenit St. Petersburg said Wednesday it had sacked head coach Vlastimil Petrzela in the wake of the soccer club's recent disappointing run of results in the Premier League.
"Today the club's board of directors held a meeting at which the decision was taken. It was not Petrzela's initiative," club press attache Andre Tanner said.
Tanner said assistant coach Vladimir Borovichka would take temporary charge of the team.
