The head coach of "Dynamo" Marcel Lichka in a flash interview with the "Match TV" channel spoke about his expectations from the cup match against "Orenburg".

— What are your feelings about returning to Orenburg?

— I am very happy to return to Orenburg, even if it's just for a short while. We arrived this morning, checked into the hotel, and immediately went to the stadium. I am very glad to see the people I worked with when I was a coach here.

— There are many changes in the starting lineups of both teams compared to their last championship games. How do you assess this rotation?

— I always say that a team is not just the 10-12 people who most often take to the field, but all 23-25 footballers working together. I am not surprised that Orenburg will also field a lineup that didn't play on Sunday. We have a slightly different situation: I was disappointed with the players' approach to the match against Ural, so I made many changes. I want to see a different team on the field today.

— What kind of game are you expecting today?

— I think the game will be fast-paced because Orenburg will not abandon their philosophy. They have fast players up front who will try to make runs behind the defenders. In their defensive line, they have experienced guys, so we will have to show our best qualities to succeed.
