The CSKA forward talked about returning to the lineup, winning the derby and preparing for the home series.
- I think the fans also thought the game was good, combative. Great atmosphere, derby - we won, we pleased ourselves and the audience.
— The first game after the injury. How did you feel?
— Everything was fine. I was preparing normally under the supervision of doctors. As soon as the medical staff allowed it, I was ready to play right away We managed to go out in the derby, win and that makes it even more enjoyable.
— Do you remember the last time you played in a mask?
— Probably at the age of 17. It seems like not so long ago (laughs).
- Ahead is the match with Lada, at 13:00. An unusual enough time?
— You need to prepare seriously, like for any other game. Yeah, it's been a long time since they played this early, but that's not that important. On the plus side, we'll be out of here early.
