Head coach of Moscow Dynamo Valery Karpin answered journalists’ questions after the match with Spartak (2:2).
— How did you like the game, was it equal?
— The result speaks for itself, I guess you could say that. You can talk about missed chances, goals that come from uncreated chances. There were a lot of mistakes, because both teams pressed very well and correctly. Here you need to take into account the resistance of the opponents.
— Do you think that Dynamo lost two points or gained one?
— I think they lost two.
— In which components was Dynamo better and in which worse?
— We were better in intensity. We were worse in coordination.
— Rate Konstantin Tyukavin's 15 minutes on the field. When will we see that same Tyukavin?
— I think that Tyukavin himself doesn't know when we will see "that same Tyukavin". There is not enough game tone. You can train as much as you like, but official games are needed. For the first 15 minutes, he played well, felt like a footballer, and could have scored.
— During the break for national team matches, you had the least time to prepare the team. Did it have an effect?
— I had the least time to prepare for the match. All teams prepare approximately 5 days before the start of the games, and before that, the players rested and maintained their physical condition. Direct preparation for Spartak began after the national team players returned.
