Sandro Schwarz: We lacked necessary composure at the very end

— I would like to thank my players for today's encounter. It was a very emotional derby with high intensity. For 85 minutes, our team played tactically well, created many goalscoring chances and scored two goals. Unfortunately, we lacked some discipline and concentration that prevented us from bringing this match to a victory. Spartak capitalized from little confusion in our penalty area, which resulted in two goals conceded.

— Dynamo played confidently in the second half and could score the third goal. What was not enough to keep the winning score?

— When we were leading by 2:0, we had quite a few chances when running into counterattacks. In some episodes, there was not enough composure, in others – accurate passes. Tyukavin could have consolidated our lead, but, unfortunately, this did not happen. At the very end, we lacked necessary composure.

— What can you say about the brawl at the end of the first half?

— I didn't see the moment when it all started. Then Gigot couldn't contain his emotions. This is not surprising, because this was a derby, and the atmosphere was emotionally charged. We talked to Gigot, and I can say that there was no provocation on his side. I think the referee handled the situation competently and took control of the game.
