The head coach of Dynamo Moscow, Marcel Licka, answered journalists' questions after the meeting with Rubin (2:1).
— I am very glad that we managed to win. During the break, I said that our game was slow, that we need to pass faster so that the opponent does not have time to rebuild. I asked Gladyshev and Bitello, when they go between the lines, to take the ball and solve episodes. And there were two moments when Bitello played with his heel in such situations, after which losses happened. The player himself should analyze the actions of the defenders and solve episodes, and not I should shout from the bench what he needs to do. At the end of the game we were lucky when the opponent hit the post. We brought a free kick for ourselves, but it's good that the football god was on our side.
— What kind of future do you see for Fabian Balbuena and Eli Dasa, whose contracts are coming to an end in the summer?
— I haven't discussed this issue with the management, so it's hard to say what will happen in the summer.
— Why wasn't Jorge Carrascal in the squad today?
— It was my decision. He trained individually this morning and will now prepare for the game with Zenit. Everything is fine, he just had three yellow cards.
