Vadim Abramov: I know Cannavaro won the Ballon d'Or. He's a great football player...

Following the match between Surkhon and Dinamo (0:2) in the 24th round of the Super League, Dinamo head coach Vadim Abramov participated in a press conference.

- We knew that "Surkhan" is a football team and has a strong defense. We were ready for such a debate. We took control of the situation by scoring two goals in the first half and tried not to slow down the pace in the second half. Honestly, I'll mention that after the break, we played to keep the score. Our fans came from Samarkand and supported us, thank you very much. There will be a break ahead, and during this interval, we will focus on getting a good recovery. Let's see which of our players will miss the next game due to yellow cards.

- Our goal was to reach the Cup final, but we lost in the semi-final in a penalty shootout and left the Cup. We are very upset about this. Now we have to prove ourselves in the Super League. Thankfully, we didn't fall into depression. Our football players continue to compete, which makes us all happy.

- In total, six of our players have been called up to various national teams. Personally, I am very happy. The players' mood also improved. We will only be happy if we produce a worthy player for the national team.

- I know that Cannavaro won the Ballon d'Or during his playing career. He was a great football player. Unfortunately, he doesn't play for us, but rather coaches, what else can I say. Time will tell.

- "We'll give the players a break until October 8th. After that, we will gather again and continue the training. On October 11th, we will play a friendly against Sogdiana. As far as I know, the national team players will return from Malaysia on October 14th. And on October 18, we will play against "Bukhara."
