"It is another proof that we are one"

Soon after the Moscow derby was over, Lokomotiv defender Vitaliy Denisov and goalkeeper Guilherme gave their comments to the official web site.

- Vitaliy, congratulations! What helped you break the unsuccessful play?
- It was the desire to win. The coach was able to find the right words that gave us momentum. Of course, we wanted to win before that, but something was going wrong and we needed some kick in the pants to get going.

- Did Bozovic motivate you emotionally, or did he change the tactics?
- Both. I think nothing extraordinary is happening. Last year we proved to have character and a solid team. This victory is just another proof that we are one.

- Are you confident of your strength?
- Of course we are, how can it be different? Why at all go out and play if you're not? Stay at home and relax on a couch. But we are sure we will keep winning and reach our goals.

- What happened in the episode when you needed medical assistance?
- I was shielding the ball from Valbuena, but then he decided to attack and I felt a strong kick on the calf - the Frenchman stuck his knee out. I hope I'll be better tomorrow.

Guilherme: "It was a storm of indescribable emotions"

- Marinato, is this just another victory or a special one?
- It is special, and even more so if you remember how it all was going. We were losing 0:2, and then was a comeback to 4:2 - that doesn't happen often. We're on a winning streak, that's for sure.

- They say such victories mean strong team spirit.
- I agree. It's a whole storm of indescribable emotions! But next time we have to be careful from the very first minutes. Of course such comebacks are spectacular, but it's a slippery slope and you'd better avoid it altogether.

- Are we going further up the table?
- Of course! We have a great team, and there's a whole second leg ahead, so we'll be able to compete for the title.
