Lovchev asked Galaktionov to give him time for work

Football expert Yevgeny Lovchev shared his thoughts on the Moscow "Lokomotiv" team and its young head coach Mikhail Galaktionov. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

According to him, Galaktionov and his team need to be given time. "Lokomotiv" is paying great attention to training its players, and this will yield good results.

If the team's performance is good from the start of the season, they could compete with "Zenit" and enter the leading group, Lovchev said in an interview with "Match TV". Galaktionov has been working at "Lokomotiv" for three years and was appointed head coach of the club in November 2022.

Last season, the railway workers were at the top for a while, but by the end of May, the team had dropped to sixth place. In the Russian Cup, the club reached the semifinals through the regional route.

In the first round of the new RPL season, "Lokomotiv" will host the "Sochi" team at home. The team's results in the new season are being closely monitored by fans and experts.
