Midfielder Alexander Zinchenko commented on his team’s victory over Switzerland (2: 1).
– You decided to dedicate your scored goal to Ashot Khudaev. Was it a spontaneous decision?
– No, even before the game I knew how I was going to celebrate the scored goal. I wanted to dedicate it to Ashot, whom we will miss very much. First of all, he is a professional with a capital letter who always came to the rescue. In terms of human qualities, I generally keep quiet, because this is the kindest person.
– How did you orient yourself in the situation with the scored goal?
– Many say that in those moments I don’t even look at the door. But I will say that an attacker of the appropriate level does not even need to look at the goal, he can feel it. Before the hit, I assessed the goalkeeper’s position and asked Mikhailichenko to throw the ball at me under my left foot. He did it perfectly, but I got it.
– Is this the component of the game you are working on? After all, in the game with Switzerland you could have scored more when you lacked a bit of precision …
– Yes, the episode allowed it, they took me great to the shock position. I just got a little lost.
– Do you listen to Kevin de Bruyne’s advice on punches?
– I learn from many players, including him. Among those I know, De Bruyne and Malinovsky have the best hit.
– Will it be enough simply to recover before the game with Spain?
– We are all professionals, this is not the first for us. The most important thing right now is to eat well, sleep well, and drink plenty of water.
– By the way, we are going to Madrid, being in the front line of the group.
– Good to see the classification. Of course, I would like to stay there. But playing against such opponents is an unforgettable experience for a soccer player. In such games, you can check your level.
