Miranchuk: Anton and Fyodor were good, they worked well
Lokomotiv midfielder Aleksey Miranchuk has been named the best player of the game against Krasnodar (1:1) in Gameweek 16 of the Russian Premier League.
- Is the result a reason to congratulate you?
- A point is better than nothing. We did not capitalize well enough on our chances and conceded a goal when Berg was surrounded by three defenders. The result is a given.
- Did the international games influence both teams?
- A couple of days is enough to calm down and let go the previous game, although we spent quite a bit of emotions against Juventus. But we are used to such pace, so it’s okay.
- What did you tell your brother when he appeared?
- I myself missed a month and thought I would be fit - I immediately started trying to dribble around the opponents. But it was hard. I advised him to play simpler to avoid cuts and counters. Anton and Fyodor Smolov were good, they worked well. I hope they will get fit soon.
