The head coach of the 2DROTS blogging team, Dmitry Kuznetsov, said that he was proud of his players, despite the defeat from Tekstilshchik Ivanovo in the FONBET Russian Cup match.

On Tuesday, 2DROTS lost to Tekstilshchik in the second round match of the Russian Cup Regions Path. The main time of the meeting ended with the score 1:1. In the penalty shootout, Tekstilshchik turned out to be stronger – 5:3.

– What are your first words to the team in the locker room?

I’m proud of them, they did a great job. The fact that we did not lose to a very strong and good team in regular time is their merit.

– How do you feel about a large number of moments at “Tekstilshchik”?

– Normal, because the team is trained and is a contender for the First League. They train every day. We train twice a week, but this does not relieve us of responsibility. We tried to do everything to win, but you saw that we were a little unlucky,” Kuznetsov said on the air of the MATCH PREMIER channel.

Tekstilshchik head coach Igor Kolyvanov believes that the match was a wonderful holiday for the residents of Ivanovo.

— It was a wonderful holiday both for bloggers and for the whole city. The match turned out to be interesting. We played and showed beautiful football. The opposing team must be given their due: well done, they fought to the last, creating interesting chances. They are great free-kicks, free kicks, corner kicks, we didn’t finish the game somewhere in these episodes.

We talked during the break, we understood that it would not be easy, we made two substitutions, which played an important role in our attacks. We scored a goal, in the second half we had good opportunities to take the lead. How it happened, how it happened. We could play better if we were a little fresher,” Kolyvanov said.
