– We knew that the opponent is not easy, and defending a large force. Were able to open an account only after a penalty. But immediately allowed his opponent to win. Moldova defended with ten men for the entire game and ran well in the counter attack. We lost two points.
– What were due to replacement?
– I wanted to freshen up the game. Shennikov out to a place left-handed hitter and open. In the middle of the field, we released Ozdoeva, because there is not enough player who can bring the ball forward. Fresh players had to add a rhythm game.
– You were unhappy that penalty went beat Dziuba. He acted contrary to your installation? And will the consequences for him?
– Before the match we obgovarivayem who has a penalty. The first applicant was Kerzhakov, then the list is Ignashevich. But Sergei felt he was not ready to break, and Artem took this role. To his credit.
– In the media said about 13 including the ultimatum, in which you can withdraw from sbornoly. Are you staying?
– I do not read newspapers.
– freshen up if a replacement game?
– I made the correct replacement, because we failed to score. And Cheryshev and ions in the beginning of the second half started to get tired, so I tried to refresh the game at the expense of the other guys. Issued fresh guys and requested that on the flanks of the players made more transmission that was the depth of attack.
– Moldova’s national team was counting on an underestimation of the opponent. Has there been this underestimation or Moldova to provide decent resistance?
– You might have thought, but we are seriously preparing for the match. Knew it would be a difficult opponent, and no underestimation was not. Player entire game well kept line of defense.
– Kokorina was not even in stock. He has a serious injury?
– The game against Sweden, he ran into the opposition’s penalty. He made a survey of the head and was advised to rest.
– The Russian Championship stopped before, it was good for our team?
– The decision was made prior to the event in order to not risk the health of the players. It was decided at the last minute.
– At what point did you realize that a draw?
– until recently I thought that we would win. Especially after scoring seemed to me that the opponent will go forward and revealed. But we gave Moldovans goal, unfortunately.
– Dziuba, leaving the field, said something to you. What was discussed?
– We talked about the penalty spot. He explained that he did not feel confident Ignashevich punch. And I thanked Artem.
– Players often miss out advantageous positions. Do not think that the absence of the delivered shock is a problem of Russian football?
– No, I do not think there is a problem. In the national team high rhythm and speed necessary to do complex actions. In training, the guys hit the goal well.
Head coach Alexander Moldavia Curtianu after a draw with Russia noted that the well-studied opponent before the game, the time from the penalty spot did not see, and declared that it was important to build new strategy.
– The game was difficult for us. I do not hide the fact that it will be difficult. The main thing was to form a team and build a new strategy. Moments we looked organized, especially in defense. I am confident that the quality will be.
– In the national team of Moldova no top players, but you played on equal terms. Why?
– Very strong was the desire to achieve a positive result. Dedication and spirit have influenced the fact that we got a positive result, and also had a safety net and a desire to fulfill the plan for the game.
– During the break, you change the striker and started playing four midfielders. Wanted to keep score?
– I just do not have the resources to attack. In one striker’s hard to play when mainly defensive. We and two strikers were not moments in front and had to change the scheme. This was not due account.
– Surprised if the Russian team?
– I guessed it would be this. I contender was actually four forwards.
– After the break you left front Grandfather. And planned to play in the event of a tie after the first half?
– No, we thought of a positive result. I released two midfielders, because the left had problems.
– We agree with the penalty?
– I do not comment on the refereeing. I will not cheat, when there was a violation, I gave instruction and did not see the time.
– You have not changed the structure as compared with the match in Austria. Picusciac there showed itself not very good, but you let him out again.
– That’s your opinion. Some people do not like the way he played, and I arranged his attitude and effort. Forwards were loaded functions in defense. Flow of forces was thus more. I am familiar with many of the guys, but everything depends on the game. The only way to completely make up a picture.
– Know where you want to beat the opponent in the case of appointment of a penalty?
– Of course, we’re considering all aspects of the study of the opponent.
– The second game in a row at the gate of your team appointed by the almost identical penalty. You tell the players that do not need to grab his shirt?
– Game – is combative, but the judges will react differently to the fouls. Unable to play, tied his hands behind his back. It will be a different kind of sport. Recently, the trend is that a penalty be appointed easily.
Russia striker Artem Dzyuba after the match talked about why he struck from the penalty spot, explained why the game was boring with Moldova, and also stated that Roman Shirokov return the team will have more thoughts.
– When you going to have a penalty that you cried Capello?
– Do not beat (smiling ). To the point should be to approach the other person, but he said that I have done kick. Coach thought it was my initiative and first forbidden to beat, but I decided to still hit. The main thing is that I scored, and did not miss.
Unfortunately, we did not win. I wish I did not score, but we won. At this level, mistakes are not forgiven. We had three or four points, and the opponent – one that he realized. But everything is in our hands. This, of course, there was a small slap in the face for us.
We dominated almost the entire game, and the opponent was closed: they have seven people standing in the penalty area. I think it is important to be corrected in Austria. Nothing is yet lost. Thanks to the fans who came to support us. Although sometimes booed. Need to be more tolerant to us – we still povoyuem.
– With the “Arena Khimki” really stark contrast?
– In Khimki all smaller, but here on a larger scale. And so, I always liked the support of spectators. We will try to match it.
– Why the Swedes, our team showed a chic football, and Moldova – boring?
– Because we were allowed to play the Swedes. Up to 75 minutes we played open football, and in the end were even fresher. Today Moldovans had five defenders and two opornika who stood near the penalty. Such a defense need only be opened through the flanks or long-range shot, but they have today did not go, so we tried to play through the flanks.
In the first half we did not manage to catch well and winning arts and the second was obtained. We began to create chances, one after another. Player just kills. They are very dangerous standards after strikeouts and angular. And one of them worked. But I hope that soon we will recover Roman Shirokov and add the idea in the center of the field. We will become more diverse and dangerous.
– How lacked Kombarova?
– I do it is never enough, it crosses. But injuries in football – a common occurrence. Garnet today also do well. I wish our traumatized children’s health. Let quickly recover.
