The players of Khimki were so upset with the defeat that they tried to quickly escape from the stadium. Apparently, Vladimir Kazachenok, who told reporters that his team played "limp and mediocre," said the same thing in the locker room. At least goalkeeper Roman Berezovsky swept through the mixed zone like a striker.
But Vladimir Beschastnykh has heard something different in his career. Therefore, apparently, calmly agreed to answer several questions. He missed the reporters - for the first time he left in the starting lineup. So, there were topics for conversation.
- Deservedly lost?
- It seems to me that a draw would be more fair. Still, the first to score. And the hosts won the winning ball not without our help. And if we talk about a penalty, then if such was appointed in our goal, the referee should have recorded an identical violation in the second half against Andrei Tikhonov.
- Have you seen a moment with a violation in your box?
- Well ... Not quite clearly. It seems that Igor Semshov missed the ball, controlled it. And Vorobyov is in a combat with him ... I can’t say whether he was a foul or not.
- Your field in Khimki is already scaring. But is the coverage on Dynamo very different from the Moscow Region?
- It's hard for me to compare. But today I first came out in the starting lineup. Yes, it seems that our lawn quality is not the best. But Dynamo is hard to play. The field is not perfect.
- You thought you played against your former club? Or didn’t you think about it at all?
- I didn’t think at all. I have been playing for a long time, I have many former teams. We have a very definite goal for every meeting, regardless of the opponent - victory. It is a pity that they lost points.
- You in the first half possessed an advantage, scored. But from about the thirtieth minute they suddenly retreated and began to play on hold. What happened
- Nothing. Dynamo is a good team. It just got to play better. And in general, football is such a game: Dynamo scored, but we do not.
- After the break, you changed your boots from bright red to white. Wrong with spikes?
- No, it was just uncomfortable.
- How do you rate your game?
- It didn’t matter. Could have been better. He played in the attack, led the fight. But there were no special scoring chances. What to be happy with?
- Vladimir Kazachenok called the team’s game limp and mediocre.
- I think these are emotions. We are players like everyone else. And they wanted to win. They put maximum effort. But the Dynamo also wanted to win.
