The Slovakian defender warns the Railroaders defensive line against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Llorente-c13671 in the upcoming UEFA Europa League tie against the Spanish outfit.
Lokomotiv Moscow defender, Jan Durica, has admitted that the upcoming UEFA Europa League tie against Athletic Bilbao would be difficult. He added that his side might not get a better chance to win the first leg against the Lions
at Luzhniki stadium.
Durica admitted that Athletic have decent players at their disposal and singled out striker Fernando Llorente for praise. He urged his side to be careful against the Spanish striker and urged the defensive line to work harder.
The Parovozy are enjoying a decent European campaign, having reached the round-of-32, after successfully completing the group stages previously. They managed to claim the second spot by finishing 6 points behind http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/RSC-Anderlecht-c40394
on the group stage table.
The former Saturn Moscow Oblast player revealed that Lokomotiv are not afraid to play against anyone and praised head coach Jose Couceiro for building up a decent squad during the transfer window.
Of all the transfers that took place in the winter transfer window, Roman Pavlyuchenko’s switch from Tottenham Hotspur has been tipped as the finest piece of business done by any Russian club during the transfer window.
Durica expressed that Lokomotiv have a decent squad and assured the fans of fighting till the final whistle of the match.
“I think that we are in perfect physical condition. We need not to fear anyone before entering the field. We are up against a decent contender but we need to show character.
“We need to cut the supply for Llorente from the centre of the field. No player can win a match single handedly. We will enter the field after studying the opponent’s details.
“Furthermore we will be having fans support during the match which will definitely help us against them.” The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hannover-96-c39492 player was quoted as saying.
Durica, who has started 6 European meetings this term, admitted that the Red-Greens need to forget about their last group stage match defeat against the Belgian outfit and urged his teammates to gear up for the next round.
