"I congratulate the opponent on the victory, the score 3:1 is well-deserved. We made a lot of mistakes, lost balls out of the blue. We entered the game well, penetrated into the penalty area through the game into the wall, Mumi Ngamalyo hit great from the penalty area. But after the first missed goal, the team lost confidence.

«In the second half, they tried to strengthen the game in the center of the field, because Krasnodar was better on the rebounds, and released Mathias (Normann). (Arsen) Zakharyan moved to the flank and got more freedom in front. Unfortunately, we managed to win back only one goal. A sad result. We always want to show a good game in front of our fans. Unfortunately, we did not succeed,» the coach added.
The specialist also spoke about the captain's armband received by defender Fabian Balbuena.
“All the players wrote three people each with leadership qualities. As a result, Anton Shunin scored the most votes, but it is more difficult for the goalkeeper to run after the referee all over the field. Balbuena, (Sergey) Parshivlyuk, (Daniil) Fomin and (Fyodor) Smolov received approximately the same number of votes. on the field. I really like the human qualities of Daniil Fomin, but on the field sometimes you need to shout more. Today Fabian was the captain, and when Sergey Parshivlyuk is on the field, the armband will go to him. In the match with Nizhny Novgorod, he will be the captain. Sergey knows how to say a couple of tough words in the locker room when something goes wrong, «Lichka said.
