—How tough was it to play on the pitch and what was the influence on the game?
• I think that the pitch was in a really bad condition. It wasn’t for football. It’s true that both teams were had the same conditions. But «Zenit» couldn’t show the kind of football on that pitch that we were used to. We were leading 1:0, but are leaving with some disappointed feelings since we gave up a goal in the last minute.
—What happened?
• There was a corner, a bit of a scrambled confusion, ball hit one of «Torpedo’s» players on the leg. Everything happened so fast. But right now we just have to concentrate on «Torino». We don’t have another option other than working and preparing for the return leg in Itay and then a really important match in the league with «Dynamo».
