Yuri Rudnev, FC “Ukhta” head coach:
– I want to congratulate everyone, especially the fans with a good game. Today I don’t feel ashamed in front of them. We acted quite adequately against one of the strongest teams of Russia, winner of the UEFA Cup.
Therefore, I can say I am satisfied. We didn’t play a closed game. We tried to play different both in defense, in counterattack and in attack. Of course, we can not comment on the highest skills our opponent posses. But today you could see the results of our work.
I was glad to see the guys realized what I wanted them to do. Unfortunately, we have taken half a year to understand these basic principles of the game. And I am sure that with the help of this understanding and the game, points are to come.
I want to thank the fans. Today we had a great atmosphere here and both teams gave a real futsal show. Unfortunately, we haven’t received any dividends in the form of point.

Nikita Kuznetsov, FC “Ukhta” player:
– Today, our team played really well. In the last game against “Tyumen” we won the first half, but in the beginning of the second one we lost all the advantage. Today, we didn’t repeat this mistake. We went on to the second half still concentrated. The game reflected it. Unfortunately, we still don’t use all our chances. So now it is important to keep working. We have plenty of time to correct our mistakes and prepare properly for the February games against KPRF.

Kaka, FC “Gazprom-UGRA” head coach:
– I want to comment about the good: the result. It is very important that we took three points today. And the score is not a big deal. After all, we came here to win.
Of course, the game is a bit upsetting: we had chances that we didn’t use, we also had moments when only with the help of our goalkeeper we could keep the advantage. In general, we have enough material to analysis and draw conclusions. These matches show the abilities of everyone. who someone what we can do.

Aleksandr Kopeykin, FC “Gazprom-UGRA” player:
– We knew that the game would be difficult. We have analyzed the game of “Ukhta”, but eventually we had problems with what we thought we were ready.
I’d like to add that “Ukhta” have been getting better. In the first round it was clear that the cguys did not have enough futsal skills. Today the situation has changed. It is difficult to leave the city of Ukhta with three points. But still it is good we got ‘em.
