Cherchesov: We choose the team lineup according to the game situation
Stanislav Cherchesov, head coach of the "Akhmat" team, shared his thoughts before the match against "Rostov" for the "Match TV" channel. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He said they will start with the main lineup from the game against "Orenburg". In today's match, Ibishev and Mehdi will take the field in the starting lineup.
Both played 90 minutes in the Cup matches. Their readiness was discussed.
Cherchesov emphasized that Ibishev and Zare also played at "Orenburg" and then appeared in the Cup matches. The game plan is developed considering the team's lineup, players' condition, and the opponent.
He noted that since they are playing away today, preparation and tactics are important. Who plays on the attacking line depends on tactics and the players' condition.
Melkadze will be on the field in today's match. Konate played in the previous round, but today he is on the bench.
Melkadze played 60 minutes in the Cup match. Cherchesov said they rotate players based on their condition and that choices must be calculated before the game.
He also emphasized that decisions are made considering the opponent's weaknesses. He left comments about the opponent "Rostov" to their coach.
Speaking about his own team, he said it is important for the team to clearly understand their duties. He hopes the game plan will be implemented on the field.
When asked about changes in "Rostov"'s tactics, he said they might play in a 5-3-2 formation, but it is difficult to give a definite answer. He stated they will monitor the situation during the game.
