Moscow’s Lokomotive is preparing for the second half of the season and has played a friendly match against Steaua Bucharest (3:3). In this match Solomon Kvirkvelia spent 90 minutes on the field.

That’s why Yuri Semin, head coach of Lokomotive, was asked about the Georgian and he explained why he allowed Kvirkvelia play without substitution.

“Is old Saba back? It needs time, overall he played well. However, he played for 90minutes because Murillo was ill and could not play. We have a plan for every player to play 45-45 minutes in the meeting, Kvirkvelia’s load was more than we had planned”, - said Yuri Semin.

Recall that Kvirkvelia has played only three games this season, despite this it seems that he remains in the team and will fight for a place in the main team.
