Rahimov Reflects on Rubins Current Standing in the RPL Table

The head coach of Rubín, Rashid Rakhimov, shared his thoughts on the current standings of his team. At this moment, the Kazan club is sitting in seventh place in the Russian Premier League table, having accumulated 20 points.

«We’re located where we ought to be. However, I believe we should be here because it’s essential for us to maintain this stability… But as you can see, we have certain issues with our squad, particularly in defense: Shvets is unavailable, Vuyachich is out, and Maldonado hasn’t recovered yet. Today, we had two youth national team players playing in central defense, one of whom is a product of our academy. So, there are specific challenges, but the effort they put in and the maximum they give… There’s determination and spirit. This spirit is what we need to preserve. When you possess that spirit, you will always find a way out of any situation, even if you’re hanging on by a thread,» Rakhimov stated during the press conference.
