"Wolfsburg is very strong team according to their roster",
said Pogrebnyak to Sport Express. "We played with them for the previous
time after winter break, when their defence didn't work well".
"They tried to look after us tightly, but succeeded in it not all
the time. Their central defender Madlung made too many mistakes and their
problems in the goal was evident after Benaglo got injured".
This match became successful for the Russian striker, as he scored one
goal, made one assist and was voted the man of the match by Kicker.
"I scored after a set-piece, and in general Wolfsburg had some problems
with set-pieces in that game", Pogrebnyak admitted.
"Their midfield line also didn't impress me, however their midfielders
are very strong. For example Misimovic has perfect field vision, he can
supply his partners with ideal assist and he is brilliant at set-pieces".
"Strikers are impressive too, so I think Wolfsburg opponents should
first of all be afraid of Misimovic, Dzeko and Grafite".
"Rubin will need to use their advantage of home stands and play better
at home. Maybe Kazan side will look fresher since they are just beginning
the new season".
"I suppose Wolfsburg will score in Germany, as they rare leave their
home field without a goal. I think their chances for victory are equal".
