the Honourable president RFS Koloskov Vyacheslav commented on a victory combined Russian Federation over team New Zealand in the first round of the Cup of confederations.
to"I still had double impression of game. It was the first official game for many months, it is good that we won on start of such rather significant tournament for us. And on the other hand I expected more substantial and cheerful game, to is a match that to a holiday which during opening was at stadium. I expected more fabulous game, especially the rival allowed to make it. I wanted to take pleasure from game to tell - now that's something like it, here it is our game. And I have no such feeling.
was the scored goals and one of them - an autogoal A little. At the second goal the combination, of course, was fine, but thus the defender of rivals missed by a ball. And our gate had two most dangerous moments when Youri Zhirkov beat out a ball from the line of gate and Igor Akinfeev helped out. Therefore the feeling of a holiday at me did not develop. We had any scrappy soccer - that is played seemingly well, game suddenly vanishes. There is no harmony even against such rival. There was no ultraboundary spirit "to tear" the rival and to show to the whole world that we are able to play good soccer.
I do not sayYa that badly played, but that soccer which I wanted to see, I did not see. After all the rival allowed to act more relaxedly and spectacularly, and I did not receive esthetic sense. Therefore impressions remained dual - good fellows that won, but over quality of game of work still against a plenty", - quotes Koloskov Vyacheslav Sport News Agency "R-Sport".
