Dynamo head coach Sandro Schwarz summed up the results of the Fraternal derby with CSKA (5:2) in a flash interview on VK Video.
– What emotions did you have at the first match after returning to VTB Arena?
– I experienced amazing feelings from returning to this stadium after 4.5 years and seeing such a large number of fans. We are very pleased with the quality of our game, its intensity – it was a great end to the pre-season. Now we will purposefully prepare for the first official match of the season.
– Did you hear how loudly the fans greeted you when the lineup was announced?
– Of course, I heard it and I really appreciate this attitude of our fans. But as the game progressed, my main focus was on what was happening on the field.
– How difficult was it to select two teams for two matches in one day?
– I would like to note the high skill of our entire team. We played well in both matches and I am sure that during the season we will need all the players. I have a difficult choice of the starting lineup for the match with Krylia ahead of me.
– Few people expected to see the combination of Maxim Osipenko – David in the center of defense. Can we say that you have already decided on a pair of central defenders for the first round?
– We'll see who will play next Saturday, but I want to note that we have a top selection of players in this position.
– Is there still a tradition to include the Bella Ciao song in the victory locker room?
– That's a different story, and now we're going to write a new chapter, so I'm sure we'll have a new song.
– Who will win the World Cup final?
– It will be a great ball. The Spanish players are great with the ball, the Argentines have incredible emotions and Messi, but in the end I think Spain will win.
