Head coach of Spartak Moscow Alexey Jamnov said the team is looking for reinforcements at the defense position.
Friday “Spartacus” defeated Dynamo Minsk with a score of 4:2. The match took place at the Small Sports Arena “Luzhniki” as part of the “Folk Festivals” dedicated to the celebration of the 77th anniversary of “Spartak”, as well as the upcoming New Year.
— The match turned out to be very emotional for the whole team, what was your mood during the match?
— There were a lot of emotions. The guys have their own emotions, I have others, my whole youth was spent in this stadium. It’s great that everyone liked the game. It’s good that we won, it’s doubly nice.
— How do you judge Mikhail Maltsev’s game? Will you keep him on the team with Goldobin and Poryadin after Morozov returns?
— Maltsev is in his second match, he needs time to adapt, we take it calmly. In this match, his line played better than in the past. When Morozov returns, we will make a decision.
— Do you want to strengthen the team?
– It’s never ideal. I would like to see targeted reinforcement, but we understand the club’s capabilities. If we strengthen ourselves, we will take the player who will help us. The whole league is now watching defenders, we are no exception. Our task is to create a team, not for one season, but for several years.
— Matvey Zaseda requested a trade. Are you ready to give up on this player?
— We are ready for a trade, but we are not ready to just give up a player. We have young people who won the competition thanks to their sportsmanship. But no one neglected Zaseda.
— Do you think Goldobin can overtake Tkachev in the fight for top scorers?
– Everything will depend on him, there were a lot of complaints against Nikolai, but I can say that it is very easy to work with him, he treats all situations on the ice with understanding. Nikolai began to play more for the team, the whole coaching staff sees this,” the correspondent reports, reporting Zhamnov’s words.
Spartak has scored 60 points in 43 matches and is in first place in the Western Conference standings.
