General Director of Dynamo Moscow Pavel Pivovarov called it an important achievement to get into the top three winners of the Russian Football Championship, stressing that the team is not going to stop there.
On Sunday, CSKA lost to Krasnodar with a score of 0:1 in the 29th round of the Tinkoff RPL. After this game, the army team lost their chances of winning medals. Before the final round, the Krasnodar club (49 points) is in fourth place, the Red-Blues (47) are fifth. Dynamo and Sochi, who scored 53 points each, will compete for silver and bronze in the face-to-face confrontation in the final round.
— Winning medals at the Russian Championship is a very important event for our club, because the last time Dynamo finished in the top three 14 years ago. And now we see and feel that our fans are inspired by the result of the team in this difficult season. It pleases and motivates us all.
However, any celebrations and congratulations on our part are now absolutely premature. Any business must be completed. Both the players and the coaching staff, and our entire club are fully focused on the two decisive matches of the season, where we will fight for silver and for the trophy, the Cup of Russia.
We invite all our fans to the final home game of the season, where, in addition to the cool football poster, the spectators are traditionally expected to have an interesting and varied match day. And then come cheer for us in the cup final. The team really needs the support of each of you - only together we can achieve truly great success, - Pivovarov told reporters.
"Dynamo" last time became the winner of the Russian championship in 2008, then the "white-blue" took third place.
