After the match between "Pakhtakor" and "Nasaf" (6:3) in the 3rd round of the Uzbekistan Cup Group B, the home team's striker Igor Sergeyev shared his thoughts.
- What impression did the game against "Nasaf" leave?
- It was a good game. An open game. As you witnessed, goals kept going back and forth. I think, even though "Nasaf" lost 3:6, they are one of the strongest teams in Uzbekistan. They displayed very beautiful football. Truly, we should admire them. I am genuinely happy. Not for them, I’m just stating the facts. Thank God, we converted our chances into goals. We were focused. We won and made the fans happy. Thank God, I scored three goals. We will continue to strive forward.
- Today you recorded a hat-trick. Moreover, you could have scored from a long distance in the Beckham style...
- Sometimes a situation resembles it, sometimes it doesn’t. I tried, but at that exact moment, luck didn’t smile at me, you could say. What I mean is, the most important thing is that we won, and the most important thing is that I scored.
- We recently saw a game similar to El Clasico. However, considering you are a "Real" fan, which star from that clash could you be compared to: Mbappe or Rafinha?
- No, I wouldn’t talk about that... There’s no need to compare me with anyone. There are world-class stars there, so I don’t compare myself with anyone. If someone compares me, fine, but I won’t compare myself. As for El Clasico, it was indeed a beautiful, intense, and interesting game. There were attacks upon attacks, so I think the fans must have enjoyed it as well.
