— I can’t say that we were inferior in terms of play. We lost our chance. There were own goals in extra time. But luck had to be earned.

We have a good team of goalkeepers. Igor Bobkov looked great throughout the season. We all played together, everything was in our hands. Eight minutes from the end, we were leading 3-1 and should have won. That’s it,” Shirokov told RB Sport.
