Football players “Krasnodar” failed to work effectively in defense in the match against Ural, said the head coach of the Krasnodar team Vladimir Ivich .
On Sunday, Krasnodar lost to Ural with a score of 1:3 in the away match of the 16th round of the MIR RPL.
— Congratulations to Ural on the victory! They were better and deserved to win. We started the match well, scored a goal and the opponent had no chance at that time. We knew the opponent’s strategy, they have long passes and they also play well from set pieces. Unfortunately, this knowledge didn’t really help us: we couldn’t work well in defense. The opponent scored the first two goals for us with tactics of long passes, rebounds and set pieces. The third goal was due to an error by the last player who tried to throw it offside. These things happen, it’s football, it can be unpredictable.
— Today, Krasnodar has practically not achieved its goal. What is this linked to?
— The opponent defended himself well.
— Spertsyan is often approached by European clubs, but today he was not very good on the pitch. Because of what ? Underestimating your opponent?
– No, that’s not an underestimate.
— Krasnodar plays badly after the international break, today in the first half you played second. How can you explain this? To what state did the South Americans return?
– It’s just our reality. We are the team with the highest number of players leaving for the national team during the break. We have four footballers called up to the Russian national team, two to the Armenian national team and two or three to the South American teams. For example, it took Alonso 30 hours to get here. It’s very difficult for them. After the international break, we always have a match on Saturday, and this is the first time we play on Sunday. For example, John Cordoba arrived on Friday, but it’s our life, we have to continue working,” reports the correspondent, according to Ivic’s words.
