In the XI round of the Russian futsal championship among the teams of the clubs of the Higher League of the West conference, Gazprom-Ugra youth team beats Spartak 5-3

Pravskiy Vladimir Vladimirovich, the head coach summed up the victorious meeting:

– We carefully prepared, understood that “Spartak” is now with the full lineup and the young guys feel very confident plus experienced guys – the leaders tried to be very responsible and, of course, feared the game when Tsaider entered the pitch. Not everything worked out today, although we practiced moments at the training, but for us there were nuances that we could not cope with today.

– The whole match was full of goals, due to what? Selflessness exclusively and eing able to score?

– The mood was good and, of course, scoring. We didn’t score with “set-pieces” for a very long time, today the first two were scored with them. I am glad that during the last weeks we have been working on it, and what we did, it turned out today. I would also like to mention the game of “Spartak”, it is very pleasant to play and compete with such a team. The team is mobile, fast, aggressive. I think that futsal has seen success today.

– You played a draw with Alrosa, now you beat Spartak, is it possible to call the club a “thunder of leaders”?

– I would not say so, we looked at the statistics after the game with “Alrosa”, we had more components: we hit more shots on goal, more individual wins, but we didn’t take a lot of losses due to mistakes. We scored, but they scored back so I was very worried after this game, we were afraid that it would affect the guys. But thanks to them, they entered the pitch today and showed character.
