KHIMKI (Moscow region), July 17, Alexander Sergeev. Football head coach Club «Torpedo» Alexander Borodyuk told reporters that he was very worried during the match against «Sochi», as the team got the opportunity to equalize in the second half, but missed them every time. On Sunday, «Sochi» on the road in the first round of the Russian Premier -league (RPL) beat Torpedo, which returned to the top division, with a score of 3: 1. «Any coach is worried. I really wanted us to turn the tide in the end, when the game went on. I was worried that we didn’t have the last pass to score a goal. I am grateful to the guys, as well as to the fans, a huge respect for them. Lost fractions of a second in martial arts, there should be a hint from the goalkeeper’s position, the last defender, it didn’t work today. Usually it's always the coach's fault, to a large extent I I didn’t guess with the line-up, substitutions,” Borodyuk said. “The result is dissatisfied. The first half was not very good, there was stiffness, so some of the actions were of poor quality compared to the training process. In the second half, they made substitutions and changed the game. In general, the effect is that we need to get used to the RPL, be faster, be mentally confident. We can play with teams like Sochi. In the end, it's my fault that I hurried with the replacements. Perhaps it was necessary to hold two replacements at the end of the match. But we wanted to give freshness to the flanks for attacks. Veterans came out, Ryazantsev came out well, but dropped out. Let's see what kind of injury he has. The first pancake is lumpy,» the coach added.
