The head coach “Sochi” Dmitry Kokorev said that when SKA rented a striker to the southerners Matveya Mishkova so he did not ask to be placed as a central striker.
On September 11, Michkov was loaned to Sochi from SKA. During the offseason, the St. Petersburg club used him as a central striker. This season, Michkov played five matches for Sochi, in which he scored five (2+3) points.
— In one of the teams, Michkov made three shots at the Spartak goal. Does it have a limit on the number of throws?
— Matvey is a leader, he wants to score a goal. He does the right thing by throwing a lot. He has precise throws. God grant he scores more goals.
— At the beginning of the season, SKA played Michkov as a center forward, but in Sochi he plays on the wing. When they loaned him to you, there was no obligation for him to play center?
– No, it wasn’t. Since last season we had a ready-made trio Michkov – Garayev – Tyanulin. That’s why they play in this combination now. They do it well, why break this chemistry,” reports a correspondent, reporting Kokorev’s words.
