At the end of the 2018/19 season, Miranchuk became Lokomotiv's top scorer and was named the team's best player.

- What is more difficult, signing so many documents or playing against Atletico and Bayern?

- Good question. If we compare the games with Bayern and Atletico, it was harder against the Spaniards. But I am more familiar with football environment, so it was more difficult here (laughs).

- You had a busy week: scored against Neuer, scored against Dzhanaev, scored against Oblak, your mom had a birthday and extended your contract. Which event is more significant?

- All these moments are wonderful and make me happy. To score against top teams, mom's birthday. I appreciate these moments, there will be something to remember.

- What does the new contract with Lokomotiv mean to you?

- At Lokomotiv I feel at home, I'm happy. I am just a happy person in my home club. Now I have even more motivation to please the fans. Come to the stadium, cheer for us! As the matches show, it's much easier for us with your support.

- Before the start of the Champions League, you said that the team was rebuilding and was looking for a new leader. You have scored two goals in three games, and now you have signed a new contract. Is it symbolic?

- I am a football player. My task is to prove my worth on the pitch, to please my family, fans, club, and be useful. Now I am one of the happiest people on earth.
