- What are your impressions of the match between SKA-Khabarovsk and Orenburg?
- The impression is common. After all, play-off games are of a fundamental nature. And in this game we saw that
the team that finished fourth in the FNL is not much inferior to the 13th team from the Premier League.
- Many called Orenburg the favorite of the pair. After watching the matches, did this impression disappear?
- It seems to me that Orenburg still remains the favorite in this confrontation, because it is very difficult to play in Khabarovsk - the change of time zones has a strong impact on the players. Especially for those who previously played in the Premier League and are spoiled by the lack of long-distance flights.
Yes, Orenburg played in the FNL a year ago, but anyway, in order to play well in Vladivostok or Khabarovsk, you need to have some recent experience of such games. And then you come and adapt faster.
- In what way should the second match take place?
- Orenburg will try to play the first number. Moreover, the team will play at their own stadium, with their fans. And, of course, the hosts will be the favorites.
In my opinion, the SKA-Khabarovsk team should have won the first match. At least with a minimal score, because in Orenburg it will be more difficult to play for a win than for a draw.
- What team would you like to see in the Premier League?
- To be honest, I would like to see SKA-Khabarovsk there. After all, representatives of this Far Eastern city have never played in the top division. Russian football... And fans from a remote region of the country will be able to watch live the stars of our championship and such clubs as CSKA or Krasnodar.
- By the same logic, do you support Enisey in the second pair?
- Yes, that's right.
- Is the victory of the Krasnoyarsk team 2: 1 in the first match a logical result?
- In my opinion, yes. Enisey is a team that has a winning spirit. This team went through the season on the rise and tried to win a ticket to the Premier League. And their psychology is different than that of Arsenal. The Tula residents fought for the entire past season to preserve their registration. And every lost match had a negative impact on the psychology of the players.
And when these teams met, and Yenisei had a coach who promotes medium and short passes and generally tries to play football, they had an advantage over those who constantly lose. And the club from Krasnoyarsk was able to translate this advantage into goals scored.
- Now Yenisei has more chances to enter the Premier League?
- Yes. In general, the Krasnoyarsk team has more chances to be promoted than the Khabarovsk team. Enisey got a more convenient opponent.
Orenburg, in my opinion, is a more efficient team. Moreover, Arsenal was in the direct relegation zone for a long time, and Orenburg was close to remaining in the Premier League without play-offs.
- Enisey, in fact, became the first serious place of work for former footballer Andrey Tikhonov as head coach. Do you see a great future for this specialist?
- It seems to me that there are prerequisites for this. And it's hard to speak more specifically here. Time will show. There is a saying: "Tell me about your plans and make God laugh."
- In general, is it good for the Premier League to have teams from the east of the country? On the one hand, this is geography, but on the other, there may be problems with the calendar, flights ...
- For the Premier League itself, this is bad. Flying long distances is physically and mentally difficult. Any change in the time zone is a serious blow to the body.
After a trip to Khabarovsk, you can get into a functional pit for two or three days. Therefore, many teams that come to the Far East put their trip on one day. They arrive, immediately play the match and leave. This is done in order to minimize the biorhythm of the player's body.
Clubs that arrive a day earlier have more problems with adaptation after returning to the west.
Therefore, here I see a minus for the Premier League. Any team after the game in Khabarovsk can lose points in the next match with an outsider not because of their own weakness, but because of acclimatization.
There is a solution to this problem. It is important for teams to have a long bench here. So that you can vary the composition. However, the participation of the eastern teams from the point of view of the audience is a great success. And on the eve of home championship world is very important to stir up interest in football in the region.
The return games will be held on May 28. The match "Orenburg" - "SKA-Khabarovsk" will start at 15.00 Moscow time, and the meeting between Arsenal and Yenisei - at 18.00. Gazeta.Ru will host online broadcasts of matches.

In 38 matches the team scored 63 points, scoring 54 goals and conceding 42. Interestingly, the Krasnoyarsk team managed to score an equal number of goals in home and away matches. Also in the asset "Enisey" two draws against the winner of the tournament - Moscow "Dynamo". And at a party, Andrei Tikhonov's team was twice inferior in the score, but was able to recoup.
Enisey has a lot of players with experience of playing in the Premier League. Among them are Nikita Chernov, Nikita Chicherin, Ilya Gultyaev, the team's top scorer Sergey Samodin and others. Samodin managed to score 10 times this season.
Enisey's performance has earned a lot of complimentary words from coaches and specialists. So Andrei Tikhonov's team will try to please their fans and compete for the Premier League.
Arsenal escaped a direct relegation only in final round, after defeating Spartak at home - 3: 0. This match was the best of the season for Sergey Kiryakov's team. The main problem of Arsenal is attack - the team managed to score only 18 times in 30 matches, while away - only five! Moreover, "Arsenal" became one of two teams that in the current ROSGOSSTRAKH Championship of Russia did not manage to win a single away victory. In 15 away matches, the Tula scored only three points, but due to a successful performance in hometown the team added 25 more to them. The amount collected was eventually enough to save them from relegation. but upcoming matches against Yenisei will be a difficult test for Arsenal. Argentinean Federico Rasic became the top scorer for Arsenal, scoring 6 goals in 12 matches. It is this footballer who is the main impact force teams. In addition, at Arsenal, goalkeeper Vladimir Gabulov, who was summoned to the location of the Russian national team, should be singled out.
Teams in the entire history of performance in the FNL have met 10 times. Enisey has 3 wins, three times the teams ended the matches in a draw, 4 times Arsenal achieved victories. The goal difference is 8:11.

Enisey won a landslide victory over Anji (3: 0), practically solving the issue of the historic first entry into the Premier League. Tambov lost in Perm and could concede more than two goals from Amkar (0: 2). "Sport Day by Day" - about the first play-off matches "RFPL - FNL".
Enisey - Anji: who plays where?
Krasnoyarsk "Enisey" from the beginning of the season was among the favorites of the FNL. With care top scorer Andrey Kozlov's team in Orenburg, Dmitry Alenichev's team lost a little in quality, which is why they lost the leadership to the same Orenburg and Wings of the Soviets, but retained their corporate identity.
Alenichev's Spartak did not show even half of the beauty that Yenisey is showing now. "Walls" and "running" - this is how the Krasnoyarsk team lives, showing football from the red and white 90s. “Anji” in the Krasnoyarsk arena was not at all like the representative of the Premier League. Having conceded two goals in the first half, Makhachkala residents began to sort things out among themselves right on the field. It did not come to fights, but regular mistakes in simple situations showed that everything is bad in the team. Alexander Budakov's injury only exacerbated the situation. 21-year-old Vladimir Sugrobov managed to make a mistake in each of Yenisei's three scoring attacks, but it was not only defense that moaned at Anji.
During the break, Vadim Skripchenko changed one of those who tried the most on the field - Vladimir Polyyakhtov. Substitute Pavel Yakovlev did not come up with any ideas for an attack. Either the residents of Makhachkala got lost in unusual conditions, or the coaches did not watch the Yenisei matches at all, but Dmitry Alenichev's team effortlessly defeated Anji in the first match for entering the Premier League. The fans in the arena's only tribune rejoiced, as if they had already entered the Premier League, the players with smiles were preparing to accept bronze medals for the third place in the FNL, which they were awarded immediately after the game against Anji. Only Alenichev and Yegor Titov were unhappy, pondering what to say to the players so that they retain the correct attitude to the return game.
Amkar - Tambov: Talalaev's team was enough for a half
Unlike Anji, Amkar did not plan to give the initiative to an opponent from the FNL. “Tambov” is not “Yenisei”: a sufficient level of skill required to resist RFPL clubs, does not possess. Of course, in the first division, Andrey Talalaev's team showed interesting football and deservedly took fourth place this season, but this is not enough for playing in the Premier League.
In almost every episode, there were banal mistakes made by Tambov players, who directly said that the team was not yet ready to switch to more high level... Even SKA-Khabarovsk showed a more confident game in the play-offs with Orenburg, while the Khabarovsk team showed the most dull football in the whole RFPL history, having issued a flight to the FNL ahead of schedule.
The players of "Tambov" held back the not very skillful attacks of the Permians until they ran out of strength. As soon as the fresh Mikhail Kostyukov entered the field, he gave an assist to Janush Gol, cutting off several Tambov defenders at once. After 20 minutes, Sergei Balanovich ran away from the opponent's standing defense and skillfully rolled the ball past Denis Vavilin - almost one of the Tambov players with Premier League experience.
It's nice that the club is moving forward in its development: first it fights for the "joints", then gets into the "four" and hires the first charter in club history to fly to Perm. However, it is too early for "Tambov" to go to the Premier League, because he simply will not pull it, at least in terms of playing qualities.
