Defender of Moscow’s Spartak, **[Ruslan Litvinov](#)**, shared his thoughts after the match of the 8th round of the Mir RPL, where Dejan Stankovic’s team drew 2-2 with the capital’s Dynamo.

“We struggled in the first half. There were numerous mistakes. Tactically, we allowed too many counterattacks against us. We managed to score a goal, but overall the performance was unsatisfactory. We will analyze the game and communicate with the coaching staff. In the second half, we took control of the game. We created more opportunities and were able to transition from defense to attack more easily with short passes. Dynamo had a couple of good chances, but Maksimenko stepped up at times to help us. We need to work more on our overall cohesion as a team,” Litvinov said in an interview with Championship correspondent Maria Kutsubayeva.
