Fernandes: I had been looking forward to scoring in Tula
After the victory over Arsenal (3:0) Lokomotiv midfielder Manuel Fernandes is spilling the beans about why it took so much time to net an opener and what he thinks of Tula, a city where he scores only spectacular goals.
- Why did you fail to net in the first half?
- We had some really hard time even despite the fact that Arsenal were playing 10 against 11. All their men were behind the ball to prevent us from finding spaces. it was reall hard to score the first one but when we did it, it became easier to play, Arsenal had to open up and we rushed forward to score more.
- How do you like it in Tula? You score fantastic goals here!
- Of course, I had been looking forward to this appearance and scoring another goal. As you remember, I did so before. But our victory is the only thing that matters. And I really like Tula, it's a great city! The morning walk was a joy, although I wanted to sleep, we woke up pretty early.
