Miranchuk: Only three points matter in the first game
Aleksey Miranchuk scored a winner against Orenburg, became the game’s MVP and explained why Eder went to take a penalty kick.
- It seemed that Lokomotiv’s advantage was shaky.
- I agree. We are all humans, we have emotions, and we can make mistakes, as well as referees. We gained three points - that’s the only thing that matters in the first game.
- You were named the MVP of the game. Are you happy? Looks like Krychowiak had questions.
- It’s okay, I have grown used to it (smiles). We won, that’s what matters. I’m thankful to everyone who came today for their support.
- Why did Eder took the penalty kick?
- He asked for it.
- Have you told him not to do this again?
- Of course not. We are one team where everyone trusts each other.
- What are your impressions about the first match after the break?
- It’s good that we didn’t pick up any injuries. We’ll get fit through training.
