Mircea Lucescu: "A very upsetting result"
The blue-white-sky blue's Manager on the draw in Dagestan, the pitch at the Anzhi Arena, defensive errors and dropping two points
What stopped you from getting a result?
First of all, the pitch. I do not think that this pitch is at the level of the Russian championship. The hosts simulated a lot, wasted time, but the Ref didn't react to it and didn't punish the Anzhi players. I need to look at the penalty again.
The Anzhi manager said he had a serious talk with the players at half-time. What did you say in the dressing room?
What can be said? At the end of the game we had a lot of chances to score. They scored from the penalty spot and with a big deflection.
What was the key moment? When did it go wrong?
One of our players lost the ball, I will not name him, it was a mistake from a pass and he lost it. Shatov had a chance when he went one on one and tried to chip the goalkeeper instead of shooting. How can you chip a goalkeeper who's 197 centimeters tall?
