Former Russian national team midfielder Alexander Mostovoy admitted he would not agree to manage the women’s team “Spartacus” .
In mid-October, Spartak announced the creation of a women’s team led by four-time Russian champion Elena Terekhova.
— In 2024, Spartak Football Club will organize its first season. In recent years, CSKA, Zenit, Lokomotiv, Rubin, Dynamo and Krylia Sovetov have appeared. You are a football player who has been playing in Europe for many years, what do you generally think about a phenomenon such as women’s football?
“I think it’s good for girls.” In Europe, this has been developed for a long time, there are many teams. I take this normally, neither bad nor good. The only thing I ask of all sports that want to get closer to real football is to never be compared to real football. They compared that of the beach, that of the media or something else. Guys, what are you doing? Stop doing that. And someone falls into the trap. Someone out there still manages to say they won something. I also won at table football, so what?
— If you were asked to lead Spartak Women, would you try?
– No, it would be hard for me. I sometimes saw on TV how the girls played. I will never understand how they don’t hit the ball two meters away. When the ball flies, she has to hit it, but she misses and the ball flies into the goal. It’s a joke, but it’s true. There is technical and physical equipment here. Men are a priori stronger than women. It would be difficult for me to work with them,” Mostovoy said, as quoted by Metaratings.ru.
Spartak Women will participate in the next Super League season.
