Spartaks Zhedson Highlights Importance of Victory Over Lokomotiv in Russian Cup Clash

Midfielder of Spartak, **Jhedson Fernandes**, emphasized the significance of the team’s victory over Lokomotiv in the first match of the quarter-finals of the Fonbet Cup of Russia (3:1).

«We never assume that any match will be easy. This win will boost our confidence, but we prepare for each game to delight our supporters. It’s difficult to evaluate each match in isolation. However, this victory was very important given the strength of our opponent.

During my solo run, unfortunately, I wasn’t able to score. We created opportunities to attack, but the goalkeeper performed well.

I prefer not to discuss personal achievements. When the team plays well, it means everyone is contributing positively. If things aren’t going well, it’s not right to single anyone out,» Jhedson’s words are relayed by Championship correspondent Vladimir Chetverikov.
