Stankovics Outburst: What Do You Want? After Spartaks Victory Over Akhmat

The head coach of Spartak, Dejan Stankovic, got into a heated exchange with a journalist during a post-match interview after his team’s 2-1 victory over Akhmat. The game took place at the Akhmat Arena in Grozny, with Artem Chistyakov from Azov officiating.

«We earned three points; this win is extremely important for the team. The players fought hard and never gave up until the very end. We must continue like this moving forward.»

— «What did you shout at the referee at the end?»
— «I greeted Bogosavac. I’m not sure what you’re talking about.»

— «Thank you. Good luck with your future games.»
— «Don’t you have any other questions? Was that your only question? Are you a journalist? Why are you asking me about that? What’s the purpose of this provocation? Do you even know anything about football? What formation did we play? Who did we substitute? You don’t know any of this. All you can do is make these kinds of comments, just like the others.»

— «Are you finished? Thank you very much.»
— «What do you want? What do you want, ***?» Stankovic exclaimed, raising his voice during the broadcast on Match TV.
