Syomin: The information on Djordjevic will be available later
Lokomotiv head coach Yuriy Syomin comments on the victory over Akhmat (2:0) in Gameweek 13 of the Russian Premier League.
- The game did not go that easy as it could seem. After we scored the first goal we felt confident. Then we took control of the game except for a period in the second half when Akhmat was building up pressure. But in the end we made a good counter-attack. I want to praise the boys, they want to fight in every episode, whoever is on the field. We will get over this period when injuries keep many of our players sidelined. Some of them will be back by the game against Juventus.
- What’s up with Djordjevic? It looked like he broke the leg.
- He didn’t, but the injury is serious. It was a bad twist of the knee. We’ll have the information tomorrow.
- How did you like the young Magkeyev and Kulikov, who made his debut in the Premier League?
- You can say Magkeyev made his debut too. To appear as a substitute at the end of the game is one thing, while starting the game is completely different. Kulikov has been training with the main team for a long time. They are great – not only did they not spoil the team’s performance, they boosted it.
