Anton Amelchenko laments Lokomotiv Moscow’s recent dip in form - Russian Premier League news
Lokomotiv Moscow have been struggling with their Russian Premier League form since their humiliating 3-0 defeat against Spartak Moscow back in October. The Parovozy reserve goalkeeper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Anton-Amelchenko-c6254, has lamented their recent
dip in form and urged his teammates to step up.
Since the second round of Russian championship, the Red-greens' confidence has been quelled after consecutive league defeats against Spartak and Zenit St. Petersburg.
Amelchenko is of the opinion that the Railroaders could have claimed the second spot on the league table, had they won their previous three league matches.
The former FC Moscow player went on to express his thoughts about Dynamo Moscow and the league leaders, Zenit. He is of the view that that the Meshki rightly deserve their place atop the league table and they are likely to progress
to the later rounds of the UEFA Champions league.
Speaking on Dinamiki, the Russian national concluded that the Louders have arguably the best set of players and identified http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Igor-Semshov-c16748 and Samedov.
Amelchenko revealed that the policemen were unlucky not to claim a top spot on the league table after injuries affected their ongoing season.
"Zenit and Dynamo are the best teams in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Russia-c2991. Dynamo are generally difficult to play against. We could have been somewhere close to the leaders, if we had won against Spartak. The derby matches are always important and Spartak
are an awkward opponent.” The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/FC-Rostov-c39192 custodian was quoted as saying.
However, speaking on Lokomotiv, he bemoaned the current situation and urged his teammates to come back stronger when the league resume in March 2012.
Aside from the domestic front, Lokomotiv have been enjoying a good group stage run in the UEFA Europa League. With only two matches left to play, they are at the second spot on the group table and trail the table-toppers, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/RSC-Anderlecht-c40394,
by three points.
The Railroaders will play against RSC Anderlecht before taking on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/SK-Sturm-Graz-c40536 in a group stage home encounter. Amelchenko revealed that they are confident of completing a double against the Austrian side and assured the fans
of an entertaining display at home.
