After the defeat of “Parí NN” against CSKA, Nikita Medvedev, the goalkeeper of Nizhny Novgorod, became the subject of the most sensational post-match interview in this tournament. The goalkeeper refused to use the usual diplomatic language and spoke directly about the situation in the stands. He was completely dissatisfied with the banners from the fans, who demanded that the former head coach, Alexey Shpilevsky, be brought back into the team. In his emotional speech, Medvedev made a direct reference to Roman Shiryokov’s famous monologue, quoting his words “You can sit at home, you bastards!” Such openness from a current player towards the fan base immediately sparked intense discussions in the sports media. Medvedev said that such actions only serve to divide the team during a difficult period for the club. What’s needed now is unity within the team, not external pressure. Experts and fans are analyzing Medvedev’s interview, noting his unusual courage and his willingness to protect the internal dynamics of the team.
