According to Ilya Gerkus, the former president of the Lokomotiv football club, the club achieved victory over Spartak due to the individual actions of player Aleksey Batrakov. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
In the Moscow derby, Lokomotiv's midfielder Aleksey Batrakov scored three goals, recording a hat-trick. According to Ilya Gerkus, it would not be correct to point out just one reason for such an achievement, but Batrakov's performance should be highlighted.
In his opinion, he described Batrakov as a very strong player, a true star. Gerkus stated that players of such a level have not been seen in Russia for a long time.
He also mentioned that this could be Batrakov's last season in Russia, and even suggested that these months might be his final games in the country. The expert noted that besides Batrakov, another talented player who could be mentioned in the Russian Premier League is Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
He is currently active in the PSG team. Aleksey Batrakov has been the author of a total of seven goals since the beginning of the current season.
