The head coach of Spartak Domenico Tedesco summed up the match of the 24th round of the RPL with Ufa (0: 0).
“In preparation, we expected Ufa to play from defense. And so it happened. If you look at the statistics, you can see that with the teams from the top [таблицы РПЛ] they play effectively, they lost only to Krasnodar. It was important to play smart and not let them play as they want – on counterattacks. We did it.
Usually in matches with large teams they have a lot of counterattacks, like with CSKA, but we did not let them do it. Yordan [Ларссона] and Ponce had a few points, but we did not realize them. This is not to say that the game was vibrant, but the guys played smartly.
Would mark the game of our defense. Yeshenko played well on the left, Maslov and Gaponov showed themselves well. Could play smarter and trickier, but it’s a matter of experience. They have potential, they play, we have a small bench, there are no 25–26 players, so young people will have more chances.
This is the future of Spartak. If they continue to progress, they will be able to gain a foothold in the foundation, ”Tedesco said.
Sobolev’s goal of “Ufa” in the 88th minute was canceled after VAR because of the offside of Zhigo
