Dynamo centre-forward Konstantin Tyukavin shared his emotions after the match against Krylya Sovetov, in which he scored the game winning goal in added time to the second half (1:0).
— In the first half we didn't follow our game plan. During the break, we corrected some aspects. The coach spoke to us in an emotional way. We came out with another attitude and started playing better.
— Comment on the goal you scored.
— There was a high cross at the far post, where Moumi fought for the ball. In his turn, Skopa moved it to me, and I played like a real hockeyman.
— There were three cancelled goals today. Did you get used to such emotional episodes, when you celebrate the ball first, and then it is cancelled?
— We are already used to it, so we are not happy in advance. And only when we see that the review has passed, then we can express joy. It's good that my goal has been approved. Congratulations to everyone on the victory.
— In your opinion, did Dynamo play better than Krylya in one of the three matches?
— I don't know about the game, but those matches are already a history. Today we won and we are very happy about it.
— What can you say about the restart of the season for the team?
— It's a pity that we didn't advance in the Cup RPL Path semifinals, but we still have a chance. I am very glad to play against Zenit. Today's championship victory brought positive emotions to us.
— What has the team improved in comparison with the autumn part of the season?
— We are improving every aspect every day, during every training session. We still have a potential to progress, and we will grow as a team.
— Don't the teammates call you a saviour in the dressing room because of your goals scored as a substitute?
— Today they called me breadwinner. Foma was the first to say so, then someone else picked it up.
— What is the difference for you to play alone or in a tandem with Fedor Smolov?
— There is no difference for me. It's nice in both cases. The main thing is to play.
— What do you feel coming out mostly as a substitute?
— As much as the coach gives playing time, that's how I try to use it to the maximum. It's the coach's choice, I'm ready for anything. Apparently now is the time when I have to come out as a substitute.
