The acting head coach of Dynamo Moscow, Rolan Gusev, shared his expectations for the derby with Spartak.
— Six months ago you already played with Spartak, and then you won with a score of 2:0. How will these two matches differ?
— First of all, I think these games will differ in structure. We then had Carrascal, and the players had slightly different tasks in that scheme. Today, the actions were arranged a little differently both in attack and in defense. Emotions, as a rule, go through the roof in such games, and it is very important to keep a cool head, play with discipline and do what we agreed on.
— You have a very interesting composition. Why did you decide to go out with two central strikers? Is Skopintsev's exit a reaction to the play of other left–backs, or has Dmitry proved that he deserves to play in the base?
— Dima always shows himself with dignity both in training and in games. Rubens has an injury to the back of the thigh, Glebov also has a similar injury, and he trained only one day. We don't have two pure attackers directly – the scheme will slightly transform when attacking and defending. When determining the composition, we proceeded from the condition of the players.
— Will this match affect your future at Dynamo? What does today's game mean to you?
— For me, from the age of seven, playing against this team means a lot. I don't think about any information about what and how it will be later. For me now, as for the whole team, the most important thing is the upcoming game.
