– Today, the main heroes of the match are the goalkeepers?
– Accept. But as a goalkeeper, I will congratulate him because he will play badly in the next game. Therefore, from this point of view, I will not praise mine. But the Lokomotiv goalkeeper played very well.
– Before matches with main rivals on the road.
– Yes, there will be both Spartak and Vityaz. We have a small chance of catching the team from the Moscow region, especially considering the play-offs.
