— Still at the start of the season. Dynamo’s matches in Astrakhan were difficult and ended in failure.

— I had a shoulder problem, but thanks to the doctor, we fixed it.

— When was your last international match?

— Two or three years ago.

— Are there fears that the lack of international practice will affect the level of our water polo?

— International experience is very important, it’s true. He disappeared. I would like to return to the international level and test my strengths.
