Vladimir Gazzayev has defended his side following a 1-0 defeat to Anzhi Makhachkala, and urged his side to win the Russian Cup tie against FC Tyumen
Alania Vladikavkaz slipped to the 13th spot on the Russian Premier League table after losing their second home game of the ongoing season. The Snow Leopards recorded a 1-0 defeat against mega rich Dagestani club, Anzhi
Makhachkala, at Republican stadium on Monday.
The newly promoted club remained unbeaten at home after suffering the opening day defeat against Spartak Moscow. However, they proved that they are a strong side in front of their spectators after winning 5-0 against Volga Niznhy
Novgorod last month.
The side failed to score the equalizer at home after conceding an early goal against the Dagestani club.
In the aftermath of the outcome, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vladimir-c36322 Gazzayev has blamed the referees for making questionable decisions during the meeting, saying that the results would have been different had the match officials not supported the Makhachkala-based
club.
The 32-year-old admitted that Anzhi are a tough side, saying that they have assembled a decent squad since Suleyman Kerimov has joined them. Anzhi managed to sign high profile players after persuading them to come to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Russia-c2991.
Players such as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jucilei-c19861 jumped at the opportunity to join the ambitious Russian outfit as they were offered a big amount in annual
wages.
“I think we did not deserve a defeat after playing aggressive, modern and powerful football. We created a lot of chances, but lacked the final touch. I think the guys lack enough experience. However, I'm always proud of my players,
for me they are the best. I am satisfied by their performance.”
“The first half of the match against CSKA Moscow and today's game show that we are on the right track. The team is gaining experience at a higher level by competing with top teams like Anzhi.” The Russian national was quoted as
saying.
Alania will now play their next match in the Russian Cup against FC Tyumen. Gazzayev urged his side to win the cup tie in order to please their fans.
