Press conference after the second game of the I round of the Russian Futsal Championship “Ukhta” (Ukhta) vs Gazprom-UGRA (Yugorsk), 4-8 (1-3):

Our head coach Temur Alekberov:

– Today the game was more interesting and spectacular. I connect this, first of all, with the fact that the old balls were returned and the players were able to perform much more.

We managed to create a comfortable advantage at the beginning of the meeting, but sometimes when it was possible to improve and strengthen it, we missed the game a little. Although, in general, the guys controlled the game, controlled the score.

I want to thank my team for the proper and professional attitude.

Our player Ivan Chishkala:

– Of course, today we succeeded more than yesterday. Mostly because we played the old ball. I hope we will play with it in the future.

In general, we controlled the game. In my opinion, we did everything to win. Therefore, I have only positive emotions from the meeting. It’s great that we are back after preseason in such a good shape. This also applies to physical readiness. We felt no fatigue.

Thanks to the fans who came to the stands, it is very pleasant to play in such an atmosphere.

Ukhta head coach Aleksey Stepanov:

– I note that our team played both matches with great desire and dedication. It was obvious. We wanted to match the level of Gazprom, but sometimes it’s hard for us to do it. But, I hope, we are on the right track.

Yesterday it was more about fighting, today it was about the game. Both teams created moments, Gazprom scored more… players are more masterful. We tried, played until the end, tried to reverse the course of the meeting, but… it’s still hard for us.

– What about the debut in the Super League of the young trainee of the club Zhasur Tuychiev?

– What to say? Well done! In the first game he played in the end, acted pretty calmly. In the second match, he made a little mistake – an unnecessary foul, but it’s okay… He held a good preseason tournament (“Urals cup “). Well done! We count on him in the future.

Ukhta player Sergey Chuykov:

– I note that we were well prepared physically to a two-legged confrontation. However, in the second half of the meetings we were not able to fully correspond to the level of Gazprom. We missed many simple balls, which cannot be done in games with such a rival.

I’m glad that we are scoring a lot, but at the same time, we miss a lot.
