Yuriy Syomin: A goal by Fernandes changed everything

Lokomotiv manager Yuriy Syomin has summarized the game against Arsenal (3:0) in Gameweek 23 of the Russian Premier League.

- I want to point at the atmosphere at the stadium. Both Arsenal and we have great supporters. As for the game, Tula defended well and compact. In the first half they denied us almost any opportunity even despite being one man short. It was a goal by Fernandes that changed everything. Opportunities started coming up one after another.

- Was that ejection a turning point in the game?

- I think it was the opener. As for the ejection, why go into a dangerous tackle if you already have a yellow card? Besides, the ball was in the keeper's hands by that time. The doctors are going to x-ray Guilherme's hand to see if everything is okay.

-Which Arsenal did you like more, this one or the one that drew 1:1 in the first leg?

- Arsenal are very fit. I think we just played worse in the first leg.

- Were you prepared for Arsenal's crosses?

- We realized Arsenal were in a difficult situation, and we knew there would be many tackles and a parked bus.

- Will out be difficult to play in two competitions, the League and the Cup?

- We're in a very good mood now. And when you're in a good mood, playing is easy.
