“What’s your impression of the game?”

“We lost, it can’t be good”.

“Were you sure that the team would be so resistant to Zenit?”

“Yes, we all were aimed at playing spectacularly and successfully, but it is hard to be defending for 90 minutes and to make any mistakes. That is why we lost”.

“This 4-minute outburst – was it passion? Didn’t it contribute to the loss of hold of the game?”

“We were attacking carelessly and missed a goal. I will say this again – it is hard to be defending for 90 minutes without any mistake”.

“Did you find the dismissal of Taranov fair?”

“It seemed to me he could have given him a yellow card but he said there were new regulations now…”

“How did you find Zenit?”

“It is a team striving for the first place. A solid team with good team-work”.

“Many Zenit supporters feared that Krylia would unite in this situation and defeat Zenit. Did the team really unite?”

“I believe you could see today that the team was playing for the people who support us throughout the tough times, it is for them that the team goes on”.

“Wasn’t there and idea after the goal to make somebody help Savin in the attacking line. Krylia kept nearer to their own goal”.

“ We became more offensive after the missed goal”.

“You have an injury, when did you last train in the general group?”

“Last week I trained individually”.

“Weren’t you afraid to play with an injury which is not completely cured yet?”

“We had no choice, we are there for the sake of those who want the team to be”.
