Dynamo Moscow head coach Valery Karpin answered journalists' questions after the away cup match with Zenit (3:1).
— A good game from our side, a good match, a decent score. Although it's not even about the score. If we had played a draw, there would have been no complaints to anyone. Thanks to all the players.
— This result gives Dynamo a serious advantage in the return game. How not to let the players relax?
— Do you think that playing with Zenit, someone can relax? The score is not 8:0, and Zenit can win back two goals from any team. There will definitely be no relaxation.
— What happened to Maouhoub and Osipenko?
— This is the most annoying thing for us now after this match. Maouhoub has a shoulder injury, Osipenko has a concussion. And so we were already not all right with the squad, and then, perhaps, they also fell out.
— Why didn't you replace Maouhoub after the first fall?
— We told him to wait a couple of minutes while we prepare a replacement. Then he stood, ran around and played another 5-6 minutes.
