Victory In Last Game
Lokomotiv have beaten Sonderjyuske in their last friendly at this training camp.
The fixture against Sonderjyuske closed the schedule of the second training camp in Spain. The Danish side was probably the strongest opponent so far - they finished second in the national championship and nearly made it to the Europa League this season.
Despite the gap between this and the last game was less than 24 hours, Lokomotiv looked fresh and could have secured an advantage before half-time. The Denisovs had chances but Igor's shot went just centimentres wide while Vitaliy hit the post trying to finish a cross from Ignatyev who impressed again. In the middle of the first half Vlad was close to being awarded a penalty but the referee saw no offence.
The Dutch kept crossing from the sides on the regular basis, trying to deliver the ball to the centre of the box. However, the Railwaymen eliminated aerial danger. The Russia national youth team coach Yevgeniy Bushmanov came to see the young talents in action - these we have many.
'Several Russian teams are having their training camps here in Spain and we keep an eye on Loko's youngsters, - says Bushmanov. - In the first half we saw two young players, Barinov and Galadzhan. Barinov has been called up to the national teams for a long time and we know what he's worth, while Galadzhan is younger but has already made his debut at Lokomotiv. It's good the guys make it to the lineup, it would be useful fot the national team if they have enough playing time'.
In the second half our managers only made three substitutions. After half-time Miranchuk and Farfan came onto the pitch, and fifteen minutes to the end Yuriy Syomin fielded Delvin Ndinga. And it was Jefferson who set up the effective attack. His cross off a free kick came to Igor Denisov who drove it into the upper corner.
In the remaining time the Railwaymen kept control of the ball and secured the victory, thus ending the second camp.
