Spartak team coach Nenad Sakich shared his thoughts with journalists ahead of the match against Rostov. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
According to him, Dejan Stankovich will not participate in today's match. The coaching staff had agreed on this in advance, and each person's role is clearly defined.
Although Stankovich will not be in the technical area today, his instructions and approach are with the team. Even if they cannot communicate directly, all necessary measures have been taken.
Recently, a defeat was accepted in the match against the Baltic team. Stankovich emphasized the need to pay attention to his health at that time.
Sakich noted that any defeat is hard to bear. The coaching profession is always under pressure.
Nevertheless, the good side is that there is an opportunity to rectify the situation in the next match after three days. Anton Zabolotnyi will enter the field in the main lineup today.
According to the coach, he was sent off very early in the previous match, in the first ten minutes, so this time he will be given more playing time. It is also taken into account that he may not be able to participate in the next match.
The team is undergoing extensive rotation. The coach emphasized that all players are important.
Every player in the Spartak squad has the right to show their potential. Players who did not play in previous matches will have the opportunity to showcase themselves and benefit the team today.
The temperature in Rostov is very high. The coach believes that the players can perform well even in such weather.
Of course, cool weather is good, but the main thing in the heat is the players' mental preparation and striving for the goal. For this reason, the coach expects a high result from his team.
