"To tell the truth we started the match against CSKA
the same way as with Barcelona," said the forward of the Russian
champions.
"We did not mean it but could not at once reorganize to a different
football: as a result the first half became the copy of the match against
Barcelona. But in the second half we managed to alter the game and started
to play more actively."
"For me as a forward it is rather difficult when the team keeps second
in the match. I have to defend more than attack. You should always be
on the watch for an opportunity to attack."
"We did not think before the match that Rubin could not win CSKA
for quite a long time already and were up to victory."
"I am sure that Rubin can play first fiddle with any team in Russia.
After all we are the champions!"
"I cannot say that my goal became decisive but before it the Army
men tried their utmost to equalize and after the second conceded goal
they understood that lost."
"The game was interesting. CSKA had no fewer chances than we had
but we converted them and they did not."
"For our team it was very important for us to win. After the Saturday's
loss of Spartak this game became decisive. Though at the same time the
defeat of the main opponent relaxed us a bit."
"One can now say that the margin between Spartak and us cannot be
won back. Put it down this way: Rubin is again champions."
"I do not fear that I can hex us. We have not secured anything in
the table yet but basically everything is clear now."
"It is early to say that the season-2009 is successful for Rubin.
We have not decided our main task yet - advancing through the Champions
League group stage."
