Ural midfielder Fanil Sungatulin said that this season the team tried to have time to perform well both in the RPL WORLD and in the FONBET Cup of Russia, but it did not always work out.

Why didn’t Ural have a good end to the season? I think I didn’t have enough strength for both the Cup and the RPL. Cup matches were in the middle of the week, and then we played in the RPL: it turned out three games in six or seven days. And almost all the league matches we played were not very good – we almost always lost. In addition, there were tough opponents in the spring. Therefore, we missed points because of the Cup. We tried to be in time both there and there, but it did not always work out.

I would not say that we put everything on the line to win the Cup. But I also wanted to go further there and take a good place in the championship,” Singatulin said to the “Championship”.

After defeating Khimki in the 29th round of the MIR RPL with a score of 3:0, Ural secured itself against the play-offs of this season.

Martinez explains why Ronaldo is still irreplaceable in the national team

Head coach of the Portuguese national team Roberto Martinez He explained why Cristiano Ronaldo continues to play an important role in the national team.

– There is always a lot of talk around Cristiano Ronaldo. Why does he remain the undisputed starter for the Portuguese national team, even though he will soon be 41?

“It’s all about his attitude towards the profession.” We constantly evaluate three key factors: talent level, accumulated experience and the contribution a player can make to the national team.

Making the highest demands on himself for the benefit of the team allows the captain to maintain his place in the squad. His desire to be the best is passed on to his partners. “The 25 goals he scored in 30 matches as a striker confirms that his play brings tangible benefits to the national team,” he said.
