How often do you train with the team?

– The biggest break lasted a week and a half. We went to Moscow to shoot commercials. I decided to ask the head coach, “How are you without me?” He then gathered everyone in a circle and said, “Gallyam asks how we are doing here.” It was very funny.

I try to train two or three times a week. We have a practical training program for figure skating. Of course, you need to recover from your workouts. I try to find time for all that.

– How do you already combine everything from a physical point of view?

– When I am distracted, I begin to forget the fatigue. I ignore everything when I’m on the football field.

– Have you booked a day off for today’s game?

– Yes. We have our day off planned, I decided to go to Moscow for the game.

– Today is an unusual format for you. 11 by 11. Are you worried?

“It’s completely new for me. All my life I’ve played futsal, and here it’s 11v11. In training, I tried to get used to such a new format for me. I light up slowly,” Gallyamov told .

St. Petersburg “Zenith” announced at the end of June the creation of a media football team “Pure Peter”. The post of head coach was occupied by the former player of the “blue-white-blue” Vladislav Radimov.
