The best player of the match between "Zenit" and "Rostov," Andrey Mostovoy, shared his thoughts about the game with "Match TV." This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
When asked how he assessed the 25 minutes spent on the field, he emphasized that he tried to take as many risks as possible. Mostovoy believes that there was no point in holding onto the ball excessively, as he aimed to take control of the game.
Sometimes he succeeded, and sometimes he lost the ball, but there was no other way, as the team became more active when the score was tied, ultimately achieving victory. Speaking about the penalty kick, he mentioned that he was not initially in the lineup, but recently he has been taking penalties.
Therefore, he stated that he decided to execute the penalty clearly and confidently. When discussing the difficult start of the game, Mostovoy noted that other teams also entered the game slowly.
For example, "Lokomotiv" and "Dinamo" also struggled to score. He said that while the team started very quickly last season, now it is better to gradually enter the game and improve later.
Thus, although "Zenit" could not start the game well, they ultimately achieved their goal.
