Character Needed - Syomin
Yuri Syomin's Pre-Copenhagen Press Conference:
- It will be a difficult game. This match is important for both teams. We have a difficult period - we've played a lot of matches, players who represented their national teams returned after long flights, the first part of the season is coming to an end, and important matches are coming. We will need character and strong-willed efforts against Copenhagen.
- Is there a task to qualify for knockout stages from the first place?
- The main task is to defeat Copenhagen. Life will show what will happen later.
- Is Farfan ready to play?
- We'll see him in training tonight. He didn't train after returning from hist national team. But this is a strong-willed person and a great professional. We hope for his help.
- In what condition is Ari and Ćorluka?
- At the moment they cannot help us on the field. Time hasn't yet come.
- There is a lot of talk around the SKA-Khabarovsk match. Do they influence preparation for Copenhagen?
- They should not influence anything. I already spoke about Khabarovsk. We need conditions for players in which they can show their best qualities. These conditions shouldn't be extreme, but normal. Of course, it's good to watch football from a warm box and say that you can play in minus 15. CSKA played, they won, but two players got fractures. We just want normal conditions for playing football.
- Will main team fly to Khabarovsk?
- Everyone, who is fit, will fly.
