Diego Laxalt: I always think more about the team and give hundred percent

— What are your impressions of such a dramatic match?

— We had a good first half when we scored twice. Unfortunately, we couldn't bring up the score in the second one. The opponent capitalized on our mistakes, equalizing the score. It's good that we reacted well to the conceded goals and were able to win.

— Dynamo controlled the match for most of time. Have you studied your opponent well?

— Yes, we have prepared very well for this game. We knew how they would play on the pitch. We did everything right for almost the entire match, except 7-8 minutes of the second half, when we conceded twice.

— What thoughts did you have in your head after Ufa was able to equalize?

— I immediately looked at the scoreboard and saw that we still had five minutes. This calmed me down a little, because we had a lot of chances before, and I believed that we could score once more.

— The press and fans compliment you on your first matches for Dynamo. Do you already feel your partners well on the pitch?

— Yes, I feel great on the pitch, I give my hundred percent. We understand each other better and better with each game, so we are on the right track.

— You have a good strike, why don't you use it enough in matches?

— So far, I have had few opportunities to hit the target. There was one moment in the first half, but I saw the better option and made an assist. In general, I always think more about my teammates, and not about how to score myself.

— There were only 50 Dynamo fans in the stands due to the pandemic restrictions. Have you heard their support?

— Yes, of course. The stadium wasn't full, so they added to the atmosphere. It is very nice when fans come to such long trips and support the team.

— In the next round, you will play at the VTB Arena for the first time. Are you waiting for this encounter?

— We need definitely to win in the first home match of the season. I think we have a good chance to extend our winning series and make our fans happy.
