What are your thoughts on the match and playing for the second team?
I am a professional and I have a contract with Zenit. The club decides how I can be better used and my job is to play football well and give 100% everyday. I think that today we played a good game and deservedly won. I enjoyed the first half more, but it was in the second half we managed to score. In general my thoughts are exceptionally positive.
Did you enjoy playing in a team with young players?
They are good young guys, but to play at a higher level they need to work hard. In football you have to work hard, only then will you be happy.
How is the level of the Russian first division?
A lot of physical contact, but this is not a problem for me. I have played at different levels so I still enjoyed it.
