Božovic: If we want to gain the high place, we should win such matches

At the post-match press-conference after Lokomotiv – Ufa match Head Coach of Moscow club Miodrag Božovic complained about psychological exhaustion of the players.

– Today the game was not always successful, -  said Božovic. – We showed poor play during the first 15 minutes, did not press our opponents on the other half of the pitch. After we played a little better, but we had to score. We play against Ufa for the second time in this month, and it is hard to win over the same team twice in such a short period of time.  I can only tell you that we gained one point today.

Why the speeds were not high? I think that everybody are tired: of intervals, of national team matches. Today the conditions were excellent: both pitch and the weather were good for the game. But if the team wants to get the high place, it should win. And it is better to win all such matches and not only derbies.
