Head Coach “Khimki” Sergei Yuran on air “” said that in the second leg play-off for the right to stay at Tinkoff RPL against “SKA-Khabarovsk” his team will play more aggressively than in the first meeting.
The first game took place on May 25 in Khabarovsk and ended with the victory of the local team with the score 1:0. The return match takes place on Saturday in Khimki near Moscow.
– The result of the first match is not very pleasant. In this regard, can we expect active actions from your team from the first minutes.
– Naturally. Because, first, we play at home. The second is our fan and our stadium. Therefore, any team should probably play home games aggressively. Obviously, there will be no confusion. Naturally, aggressively, we will of course play offensively.
– About the disqualification of Grigalava, you could not count on him. Did you really rely on him?
– Let’s say it’s still a home game. We always proceed whether the match is away, which opponent. It’s a combat unit, but the idea was that at home you still have to play more attack and with the first division, with all due respect to the opposing team, so the plan was to play four defenders, as we are going to play today to go more on the attack. The schema has been changed.
– For whom is the game more fundamental – for you as a former coach of SKA-Khabarovsk or for Kamran Aliev, a former player of Khimki?
– I think it’s wrong to talk about some kind of integrity, it’s just that there is a task here, there is a team that has to go out, play and win, so I think these duels, respect for principles, are probably in the background, – said Yuran on .
The winner of the confrontation, who will play in the RPL next season, will be determined by the sum of two meetings.
