Dynamo Moscow head coach Sandro Schwarz on Match TV shared his expectations for the away match with Zenit.
– The team won two victories in a row. It seems that she is approaching her optimal form. Is that so?
– As for the result, it was two good matches, but we want to improve our game. Today we have the opportunity to test our level in a match with a very strong team.
– In an interview you said that the key to success is a successful defensive game. Does this mean that today you will give the initiative to the opponent?
– Let's see how the game goes. Of course, we will need to play reliably and aggressively in defense and sharply in attack. If you want to achieve a result in the match with Zenit, you need to show your best game anyway.
– Timofey Marinkin is back at the start. Is this an advance for a young player, or do you trust him one hundred percent?
– It's good that he scored in the last round. He is a quality player with great potential. He is showing himself well and is constantly progressing, so we decided not to change the line-up.
– In the next round you will play with Rodina, which beat Zenit in the last round. Did you watch this match in preparation?
– Of course, we have analyzed it. As I said, Zenit is a great team with a great coach, so we were preparing for his best version.
