What does doubting mean? I don’t know. I can’t understand it, sorry (laughs).

You were personally criticized, do you feel you’ve had a good start to the season?

Who criticized me?

Journalists, pundits, even the supporters…

I didn’t see it! It’s a surprise to me, because I don’t look at that.

Safonov: “That was the most important thing today.”

A win that feels good?

At some point, we had to put a stop to the situation we had at the start of the season, when we just couldn’t win. But today, we’re very happy to have taken 3 points. That was the most important thing today.

Safonov: “I’m a little happier than usual.”

Was this your best match of the season?

This season? Yes, I think so. It was very important for me, it was the first match without conceding a goal. That’s very important. We haven’t had much luck at the start of the season. We faced few shots, but conceded a lot of goals. Today, we changed that situation a little.

Brest had their moments to score, but we stopped every attack. Today, I’m a little happier than usual. I didn’t concede a goal, it’s the first time this season.
