Igor Semshov: “It’s necessary for someone to fly out”

Midfielder Dynamo played out only towards the end of the season. He was a good member of the national team in Macedonia. And he tried to have his club beat Torpedo on Saturday. At the same time, Igor Semshov did not feel any pity. Neither to the Macedonians, nor to former teammates.


- Igor, today Dynamo fans chanted: “Goodbye, Torpedo”. Didn't your heart ache?

- So they did not shout it to me. When I played Torpedo, the team fought for other places. But this is not a stone in the garden of current players in black and white. I’m just now a Dynamo footballer.

- Is there really not even a little sympathy for his former club?

- There was regret. But only until Torpedo became a direct competitor to Dynamo in the struggle for survival. Honestly, in the middle of the season I did not think that it would happen. But this is life.

- Dynamo in recent matches can not be found. You too. And the team flies, and you became the main character. But glasses are no longer needed too much ...

- But in any case they are awarded for victory. In addition, we play for fans. Despite the frosty weather, a lot of them came.

- In Dynamo are already worried about the next season? Do you think the team needs reinforcement?

- It's not for me to decide. There is a coaching staff, leadership. My business is to complete the installation. I can play, I can not play.

- You diplomatically evaded the answer.

- You know, strengthening any team is required. Even the champions.

- In the match against Torpedo, Andrey Kobelev did not make a single substitution. You do not want to beware?

- Before what? Before vacation?

- You can get injured.

- If you think about injuries, you will definitely get them. No one is safe from this.

- How did you meet at Dynamo after the match for the national team?

- Fine, congratulations.

- Was there a joke about your unexpected role?

- Why joke something? He played as a midfielder, as in the club. However, they began to call me the king of the air.

- CSKA is the champion. Is this a natural result?

- Given that the army team was a leader for a long time, then yes. They played without serious failures. Congratulations to them.

- And the fact that “Shinnik” and “Torpedo” left the first division does not surprise you?

- Yaroslavl sometimes showed good football. But someone needs to fly out.

- Will you go to the first league matches with black and white?

- Yes, if our matches will not coincide in time.

- What do you wish your former team?

- Return.

- Do you want that?

“That's what everyone wants.” Still, such a Moscow club left the class of the strongest ...
