The head coach of the Nizhny Novgorod “PARI NN” Sergey Yuran said on the air of “Match TV” that he demanded from the players of his team not a beautiful, but a pragmatic game in the match of the 24th round of the WORLD of the Russian Premier League (RPL) with the Samara “Wings of the Soviets”.

On Sunday, PARI NN scored a 2-1 home win over Krylia.

– At the installation, I explained to the team how we can achieve victory, and also how we can not achieve it. Well done guys, they listened, heard and carried out the installation. It was a tough game. I told the guys that now I don’t need beautiful football, but I need pragmatic football, because football is an intellectual sport. It was clear that the team was dominated by the fact that they had not won for a long time, especially when they played at home. As a player in the past, I understand them, – quotes the words of Yuran “Match TV”.

Igor Osinkin, head of the Wings of the Soviets coaching staff, said that Samarans should have won, as they played with a big advantage.

– I told the players that even such games must be able to win. It is clear that it was difficult, but everything was unequivocal in terms of refereeing mistakes, but even in this situation we had to be holistic, not to allow stupid things, not to break down. Although this is only, probably, in the moment with the second goal there was a misunderstanding, but in stoppage time this did not affect the game itself. If you take the match, we played with a big advantage, we had to win. Unfortunately, they didn’t take their points,” Osinkin told Match TV.

PARI NN (22 points) won the first victory under the leadership of Sergei Yuran, who took over the team on 4 April. Nizhny Novgorod are in 13th position in the RPL standings. Wings of the Soviets (25) are in 12th place.
