«Dear fans, the channel” Russia “refused to buy our match with the” Real Sociedad “. At my suggestion “If you can not sell advertising time, let me selling” they laughed. So on a public channel is not our game, because fundamentally we will not give away free game, “- wrote Galitsky.

«We do not show match” Krasnodar “with” Real Sociedad “. Snag purely economic. We perform translation – our direct costs. Instead, the clubs provide us with free rights to home games.
Colleagues of “Dynamo” and “Locomotive” such practices are satisfied. Colleagues from the “Krasnodar” – no. We made an offer that the free show this game, as is spent on the production of the broadcast, but were refused “- quoted Taschina” Soviet Sport ».

We should from the very first minutes of the match to seize the initiative to the opponent felt uncomfortable in our field.

– quoted Canales “Sport-Express».
Another midfielder Markel Bergara Spanish club also spoke about the upcoming opponent.
«Despite the fact that we will face a little-known opponent, their level of play is high enough. Judging from the data we have, we have to solve. They composed a great selection of Brazilian and Russian players.
They are somewhat similar to the “Miner”, which we played last season. They have a strong defense and forwards the top level. Plus the whole team on the move. Nevertheless, we have quite a strong line-up, to go further. Apologies in case of failure simply can not be »,
– sends word midfielder Inside Spanish Football.
But the ex-coach of Russia Byshovets even predicted the possible outcome of the match “Krasnodar” with “Real Sociedad” in the preliminary stage.

to reach its conclusion and former captain of our national team Yegor Titov.
«I have a suspicion that after a good, classy victory over the” Spartacus “, exit success in Rostov” Krasnodar “charges confidence felt its true power. After all previous matches in the Europa League too easily given – contestants were not the level.
Now the serious opponents were defeated. The team is growing before our eyes – it shows. Today’s “Real Sociedad”, in my opinion, the equal of “Krasnodar”. Therefore, I believe that the forces of Krasnodar on a decent performance in San Sebastian “, – told Titov.
Do not stand aside and famous TV commentator Vasily Utkin.
«Krasnodar” if it respects itself should make “Real Sociedad”. He scored a beautiful shape and plays good football, which appreciate and by the “Real Sociedad”. Understand themselves, by selecting the optimal composition of the game and the right plan, “Krasnodar” certainly beat “Real Sociedad».
This club lost goalkeeper and lost one of the two key players – Grizmana. He himself has to do and do it. He has not held a single match of the season. The “Krasnodar” advantage on all counts. At this moment, he is stronger, “Real Sociedad”, which he had to beat “- Utkin said on the radio station” Echo of Moscow ».
Weather” Gazety.Ru “- winning” Real Sociedad “with a score of 2: 1.
Level opponent may postpone the psychological imprint on the morale of the players “Krasnodar”, which in addition will have to play at a party.
