Orenburg team's head coach Vladimir Slishkovich shared his thoughts with Match TV after the game against Rubin. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He said about his team's performance: the first and second halves showed completely different styles of play. We knew that Rubin's team is especially strong in fast attacks.
We lost the ball in attack, and the opponents launched quick counterattacks, scoring twice. In the second half, the opponents retreated a bit, giving us more opportunities to play.
However, our players fought until the end and tried to equalize the score. The opponents also had chances, especially in fast attacks.
Overall, I consider the final result of the game—a draw—to be fair. Daku scored two goals today.
In response to the question whether some people underestimated this player and allowed him to get close to the goal, the coach replied: We do not underestimate the opponent. Daku has demonstrated his skill many times.
He is a player capable of changing the game. We prepared for him, but sometimes the opponent plays football and takes advantage of their opportunities.
Therefore, no one underestimated anything. Unexpected situations can always arise during the game.
