The head coach of Kazan’s Rubin, Rashid Rakhimov, addressed a question regarding Akron’s forward Artem Dzyuba ahead of the upcoming match on September 20 for the 9th round of the Russian championship.

— How will you prepare for Artem Dzyuba? He is currently focused on breaking records and achieving eternal status, so every goal is significant for him.
— Nothing is eternal. You can set records, but as we know, records are always broken and change over time. We are well aware of Artem and recognize his strengths. Naturally, we’ll strive to implement our game plan effectively. This isn’t just about Artem; it pertains to various aspects of our gameplay, as Akron has demonstrated competence in numerous areas,” Rakhimov stated in an interview with the club’s press office.
