We're speechless, how about you? 

I’m incredibly happy that I've scored my first Zenit goals in a competitive match! It is hard to find the right words. I still have too much adrenaline after winning this derby. So I have no words too!

How does it feel to score the winning goals in such an important game? 

It's like a dream to score two in such an important match, but the most important thing is that we won the first leg of this semi-final. Now we need to take a breath and concentrate. We have to play even better in the second leg and with God's help, reach the final. 

Which of the two goals was better for you?
 
I think the second one! It was a better goal and very exciting to score. 

When you celebrated the first goal, you looked at your watch. Does this mean your time has come? 

Yes, my time has come! I saw another player do this celebration and really liked it, so decided to do it today. 

Is the second goal the best of your career so far?

Perhaps this is the best, absolutely yes. 

Why did you decide to shoot that way? 

If I’ve got it right, Wendel gave me the ball, I saw the free space in front of me, took a few steps, entered the penalty area, and took a shot aiming for the far corner. It went very well! 

Who will you dedicate your first goals Zenit to? 

To my whole family! To my girlfriend, my mother and my sister, all of whom came with me here to Russia.
