Tarasov: Thanks to the fans for the banner!

Lokomotiv midfielder Dmitriy Tarasov has popped into the #OurCherkizovoLIVE studio to share his impressions from the game against Terek (0:0).

- It’s difficult to comment on the episode with the possible penalty. You can’t turn back the time but now, as I have watched the replay, I can tell you it was a 100% penalty. It was hard to break up Terek’s back line. Terek were a defence-minded team, while we kept wasting our chances. It’s annoying that we are failing to haul maximum points in the home games. That’s exactly where we have to score and make our fans happy.

- Logashov played in the centre of defence today. What are your impressions?

- We didn’t concede, which means the defence worked well. But our finishing has been poor. But you can’t only blame the forwards. I, for one, had a scoring opportunity when having a go from a long range.

- The fans are sending their regards - it’s your 100th appearance at Lokomotiv.

- Yes! I’ve seen the banner on the stands and want to say thank you! I really appreciate the fans remember it’s my 100th appearance for the club. I hope to make at least a hundred more.
