One of the most uncompromising and spectacular matches of the 26th round of the Russian Premier League took place in the Moscow derby between the teams 'Spartak' and CSKA. In a fierce and intense game, the guests – the 'army men' won 2:1, moving up the competition table above their rivals and securing third place.
Abbosbek Fayzullayev, a talented player from Uzbekistan who started the match in the main lineup and was active for 72 minutes, answered journalists' questions in detail after the match.
About the intensity of the derby
— The clash with 'Spartak' is one of the most prominent derbies in Russia. In such games, it is natural to have many fouls and yellow cards. Sometimes, I think the team that commits more fouls can win.
We reviewed the penalty situations from today's match in the changing room. In the second situation, the opposing team's forward pushed our player with his hand, leaving our teammate no chance to avoid the ball. I didn't understand why the referees assessed this as a penalty, but the most important thing is that we ultimately achieved victory.
About Jamoliddin Abdulqodirov's debut
— Of course, we congratulated our teammate Jamoliddin Abdulqodirov on his first match in the main lineup and encouraged him. Making a professional debut in such an important derby is not an easy task, but he performed his duties excellently. I hope his future will also be bright.
It should be noted that Jamoliddin Abdulqodirov, born in 2005, made his debut in the main lineup of CSKA in the match against 'Spartak'.
About adapting to the new playing style
— Head coach Marko Nikolich is implementing a new tactical scheme and style in our team. At the same time, he has assigned me a new position. This is a new task for me, and that is why my bright performances in previous matches may not be visible now. However, I am continuing to work with all my strength, and I hope to fully adapt to this style soon.
About Miralem Pjanic's role in the team
— Pjanic is an important player for us both on and off the field. His vast experience, constant consultations with us, and support give the team great strength. He is also demonstrating his high level on the field.
Regarding the rumors about leaving CSKA
— For now, it is not important for me to respond to the rumors about leaving the club. My focus is entirely on the remaining 4 matches of the championship. I am also striving to win the Russian Cup with CSKA and to qualify for the World Cup with the Uzbekistan national team. Right now, all my thoughts and attention are directed towards these goals.
About the victory over 'Spartak'
— I would like to thank our fans who supported us at the stadium and all the fans who watched us on television. We dedicate this important victory to them. The game was very tough for us, but winning in such a significant match was doubly pleasant.
From the very beginning of the match, both teams knew it would be a difficult game. We fought hard for every meter of the field. We are very pleased to have achieved victory in such a fierce contest. Moreover, surpassing 'Spartak' and climbing higher in the competition table gave us additional strength. Now we want to win all the remaining matches and achieve our goals, — concluded Abbosbek Fayzullayev.
