Former Russia national team player Igor Ledyahov highly praised the performance of the "Lokomotiv" team in the initial matches of the new season of the Russian Premier League. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He noted that the team was much more experienced compared to the previous season. This opinion is also confirmed by the victory over the reigning champion.
In the opening matches of the season, "Lokomotiv" looked decent, the expert said in an interview with Metaratings.ru. Ledyahov also recalled that last season the "railway workers" had a good start, but after the winter break, the team's performance declined.
The team collected 6 points in the first two rounds, defeating "Sochi" 3:0 and "Krasnodar" 2:1. Currently, the capital club is in first place in the competition standings.
In the next round, the team led by Mikhail Galaktionov will travel to Nizhny Novgorod to play against "Pari NN".
