"Till the visit to Wales I knew almost nothing about this country," said the pivot of Zenit. "I am here for the first time after all."
"I knew that Wales is a part of Great Britain and that its capital is Cardiff. That all I am afraid."
"Six years ago our team got a ticket on the Euro-2004 this and I remember that match. As any Russian who is not indifferent to football I watched it on TV."
"What I remember most about that game is unlimited commitment that showed our team. And also the after-match retort of the author of the only goal of the match Vadim Evseev."
"I cannot say that the game in 2003 was more important than the coming one. This time the fixture in Cardiff will also be a key match."
"If we fail to win here than we almost lose the chance to finish on the first place in the group standings."
"Everything depends only on us. If we get nine points in the coming three games than we advance to the final stage directly from the group. And if there is such a possibility we must do our best to use it."
"It is very interesting to play with representatives of Great Britain. But my preferences in European football are rather wide. I like English Premier League and the tactical actions of Italian teams. I also like Spanish championship with their attacking style."
"I don’t think that Wales shows a typical British style. At least I can judge on our home match. And to my mind there are almost no teams left that strictly hold to the so-called British style."
"In modern football everything got mixed up. Moreover in England where there are so many internationals in the teams now."
"You should not worry for the motivation for the game is very strong. We will be not 100 but 200% up for this match, believe me. The team understands perfectly well that the qualifying tournament entered its final straight and we have no right for failure."
"We will enter the pitch fully self-confident. The Russian footballers have strong nerves. We have a certain goal and arrived here to reach it."
