- In last three games of Al Ain has hammered in 10 balls, at our contenders a strong line of attack. We will try to give  particular attention not only protection as the best defence is attack.

- We have arrived to the United Arab Emirates in advance. Than it is caused: to continue preparation for a season, to  acclimatise to local conditions or to look at a match of Al Ain?
- Really, we put before ourselves all these problems. It was necessary, that football players adapted for environmental  conditions in which it is necessary to play. As in Tashkent when we left was a minus of 7 degrees of a frost, and here  under 30 degrees of a heat. We continue to prepare for a season. And we managed to look still game Ain in national  championship.

- I am glad that we begin tournament in the United Arab Emirates as one year ago here we have held a meeting of the first  round and have beaten Al Ahli with the account 2:1. Tomorrow also we will try to win and start successfully. The difference  only that last year we to League have spent games of the championship of Uzbekistan, now is not present. But it cardinally  changes nothing. We were well prepared for a season and in a condition to beat the contender.

- Whether frightens you what owners will support tomorrow many fans?
- No. Last year we had to play to conditions when our contenders supported and more fans, than will be tomorrow. Also it  is not necessary to forget that in a reciprocal meeting in Tashkent us will support about forty thousand our fans.
