Andrei Talalaev, the head coach of Kaliningrad’s Baltika, assessed his team’s chances of retaining their place in the top flight next season following a 0-1 defeat to Lokomotiv Moscow in Matchday 29 of the Russian Premier League.
Lokomotiv Moscow 1:0 Baltika Kaliningrad
Goal: Rudenko – 4′
Red card: Andrade – 12′ (sent off)
“I am confident we will not be relegated next year. Even if players change, even if the coaching staff changes. I am sure that Baltika will keep moving forward as a structure.
We are growing together, and there is positive movement in all directions. I am not ashamed of the football we play — I am ashamed of the result. There is still a match against Dynamo, and we must put everything we have into it,” Talalaev said.
Baltika has earned 46 points and sits fifth in the RPL standings.
