It’s Spartak v Zenit in the penultimate match of the season, neither side have anything to play for as the season has already been settled, does this mean you will play more openly?
I think that we will play as we usually do and we won’t see anything new. We’ve been quite successful in recent matches and Spartak are one of our main rivals and a challenge. Even without anything to play for as we’ve already won the league and Spartak does not have anything to aim at. I think it will be a good game and the supporters will enjoy it.
Zenit are already champions, are things quite relaxed in the team?
I can say the atmosphere in the team is the same as usual, although now in training we’re all in high spirits. Plus it’s our fourth title in a row.
It’s the end of the season and fatigue can build up. How do you feel now? Is there such a thing as cumulative fatigue?
I don’t think we feel anything like that at all, since we’re only playing once a week and it’s a standard fixture list. I don't think anyone is tired or fatigued. I am sure that on Sunday we will be in our best condition.
