Russian coach Valery Gazzaev assessed the development trajectory of Lokomotiv and the chances of the Moscow club in the championship race in the RPL.
After 15 matches in the current season of the Russian championship, the railwaymen occupy 3rd place in the standings with 34 points.
“Lokomotiv made an absolutely right decision by giving young Russian footballers a chance. The youth of Lokomotiv is developing, and I see their progress. Therefore, I do not discount Lokomotiv in the championship race; the team is rightfully earning its points,” Gazzaev is quoted by Metaratings.ru.
On Saturday, November 23, Loko will play the match of the 16th round of the RPL against Spartak. The game will start at 18:00 Moscow time.
