Sandro Schwarz: Courage and energy with which we faced Krasnodar made me happy

— I am very proud of my team. I'm satisfied with the game quality and the dedication of the guys, especially in defense. Even in the absence of key players, the team showed its best side. Yes, we could have played better in some counterattacks, we could have scored earlier. In general, I am happy with the victory and satisfied with the courage and energy which we showed against Krasnodar.

— Why didn't Guillermo Varela enter the team list today?

— Varela suffered a muscle injury in one of the pre-game training sessions. Sergey Parshivlyuk replaced him perfectly today. He did a good job and was very reliable.

— Alexander Kutitsky played his first full match for Dynamo in the RPL. What do you think about his play? What else does he need to improve?

— It's great that another Dynamo Academy prospect played his first full match in the championship. Today he had an important role in a very responsible position of a defensive midfielder. And he played his role brilliantly. The calmness with which he played was taken up by the whole team. If we talk about his development, he will improve his level of play through the everyday work.

— It seemed that the referee whistled in favor of Krasnodar. What can you say about the refereeing?

— I would not like to talk about the quality of refereeing. Immediately after the match, the first referee came up and apologized for the red card, which he initially showed to Anton Shunin. This tells about his human qualities. I think he didn't make any crucial mistakes.
