Mikhail Kobyakov: “I can’t blame the girls, they did what they could”

The head coach of the youth team WFC Dynamo commented on the performance of his players in the derby with WFC Lokomotiv (0:4).

— Judging by the score in the match, we can say that nothing worked out today. But in fact, we understood that we were playing with the leader, we wanted to create as many problems for them in defense as possible. The girls tried very hard and played selflessly.

The level of Lokomotiv players is quite high, and the goals they scored against us today can be called masterpieces. Three goals from a long distance, when the goalkeeper could not save. The goals were very beautiful, and it is difficult to blame anyone.

I cannot blame the girls, they tried, did what they could, but today the opponent turned out to be stronger. And this is probably the first game about which we can say that we were outplayed in all respects.

— Ksenia Skotnikova was replaced due to injury, how is she now?

— We hope that Skotnikova has nothing serious. When she was covering a cross, she loosened her ankle a little. We decided to play it safe and replaced her.

The next match of Dynamo U-21 will be played on September 15 away — against Krasnodar WFC. The kick-off is at 11:00 Moscow time.
