Smolov: I hope such victory will give us strength and emotions

Fedor Smolov scored the winner against Tambov (1:0) in gameweek 8 of the Russian Premier League.

- It was hard. We didn’t play the best football. It's good that we scored an early goal. Thanks to the fans who came to the game. This victory is for them.

- Not the most successful series behind. A bright future ahead?

- Yes. It seemed that even though we didn’t lose, we drew the last two matches, we still didn’t win and we didn’t score goals. I hope that such a difficult victory will give emotions and strength.
