The Nigerian footballer bemoaned the missed opportunities and urged his side to score more points in the Russian Premier League.
Lokomotiv Moscow were unable to close down the gap with the table-toppers, Zenit St. Petersburg, after recording a 1-0 defeat against the St. Petersburg club at Lokomotiv stadium.
The Loko can consider themselves highly unlucky not to score a goal, as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roman-Pavlyuchenko-c31639 missed from the penalty spot in the 38th minute.
On the other hand, Zenit managed to extend their lead atop the league table by claiming all three points against the Moscow-based club. The latest result means that Lokomotiv are now fifth in the league rankings, 14 points adrift
of the top spot.
In the aftermath of the outcome, Lokomotiv striker VictorObinna has lamented the situation, expressing his dissatisfaction after suffering their second defeat of the third league round.
The former West Ham United player went on to admit that Zenit were lucky to get the goal during the second period of the match.
"Zenit were very lucky the entire match. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roman-Shirokov-c31645 scored a goal after the ball came to his feet due to a weak clearance. I remember a similar situation in the Europa League, when I controlled the ball with my chest and sent
it into the back of the net.
“We played against one of the best Russian teams. We tried to get back into the game but unfortunately we did not take all our chances. The quality of the field restricted us from demonstrating our game. We are all disappointed.”
Former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan player was quoted as saying.
The Railroaders played the crunch league tie on the back of a 2-0 defeat against Dynamo Moscow.
Obinna admitted that Lokomotiv need to alter the situation if they are to claim a decent spot at the end of the campaign and assured the fans of working hard in the remaining matches of the ongoing season.
