Aleksey Berezutskiy: The guys showed character and fought until the end
05.03.2022
PFC CSKA head coach press conference after a hard victory over Nizhny Novgorod.
— In my opinion, the game was quite bright. We completely controlled the match, both before and after the sending-off — Berezutskiy said. — But the team was tired. I do not understand the schedule provided by the Premier League. We have been asking for a long time to move the game to March 7, it did not bother anyone and no one was against it. But for some reason, no one did it. Especially considering that it takes 4.5 hours to get to Sochi.
This is an original and strange solution. The players played on fatigue. We arrived early in the morning, and it is impossible to have time to recover after such flights. It's dangerous for your health. But what's done is done. I am glad that the guys showed character, fought until the end. Football rewards, and it turned out that way in such conditions.
— How severe is Fernandes' injury?
— It's severe — he has a concussion and a broken nose.
— Do you relate a not particularly bright game in attack with fatigue?
— It is difficult to play in attack in such conditions. It is necessary to create, and this is much more difficult, especially when the players' legs have not fully recovered. A sharp and creative game was not enough.
— What about the players' contracts? There was news about Magnusson this week.
— You saw Magnusson today, didn't you? You did. All our players are with the team now, ready to fight and play for it. I hope it will keep on like this.
— How are you mentally coping with what is happening now? Is it possible to think about football?
— Not only me and not only football, but also any other people are having a hard time right now. A shop assistant, a miner, hardly think about work as much as they did a week ago. I have already said what I think about what is happening.
— Will you congratulate women on the upcoming holiday?
— Yes, and I wish everyone peace, kindness, love. I hope the weather will be good on March 8. And everyone will have at least a good mood.
