Lokomotiv Moscow’s advantage over other teams lies in the competence of the head coach Mikhail Galaktionov working with young players, said former head coach of the Russian national team Boris Ignatiev.
Based on the results of the six rounds of the MIR RPL, the railway workers scored 15 points and occupy the first place in the standings.
— For me, Lokomotiv’s leadership is remarkable. In the match against Rostov, out of 11 players in the starting lineup, there were 10 Russians. In addition, almost the entire attack and midfield line are young players, from 18 to 24 years old. This suggests that there are specialists in our football, like Galaktionov, who know how to work with Russian players. And this team, under his leadership, creates a very healthy competition for teams where a maximum of three Russian players play, and the rest are imported, these people who must produce a solid product.
“Lokomotiv has found its game. Not without problems, but these problems are being solved. The team plays very dynamic and fast football, and today, in my opinion, it is quite natural to be among the leaders of our championship,” Ignatiev told Gazeta.Ru.
