“Lokomotiv” team defender Egor Pogostnov gave an exclusive interview to the publication “Evro-Futbol.Ru” about the defeat against CSKA in the Russian Cup. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
— How can you explain the defeat against CSKA? — The first half did not go well for us.
We needed to play better. We did not understand each other well enough, and as a result, CSKA controlled the ball more.
— Did the victory over “Krasnodar” in the last match boost the players' confidence? — Of course.
Winning streaks always provide confidence and a good mood. The spirit of our team is high.
— The start of the season has been lucky for your team. Are you getting used to being at the top?
— We need to continue in this spirit and avoid mistakes. — Are you surprised that the championship leaders are dropping points at the beginning of the season?
— All teams in the top ten have strong squads. Every team can put up a fight against their opponents.
So there is nothing surprising in this situation. — You will play your next match against “Pari NN” in Grozny.
What is your reaction to the match being moved from Nizhny Novgorod? — If the game is moved, we will go and play.
There is not much difference in that regard. We are preparing seriously for this match, just like we did against “Krasnodar” or CSKA.
This is also a game we need to win. — “Lokomotiv” head coach Mikhail Galaktionov has played a hundred games with the team.
How did you congratulate him? — We congratulated him verbally on this achievement and gave him a jersey as a gift.
The interview was conducted by Yelena Grigorievskaya.
