Baltika Coach Calls Out Yenisey Over Match Day Logistics

Kaliningrad Baltika head coach Sergey Ignashevich criticized Yenisey Krasnoyarsk for the conditions offered to the visiting team before their upcoming First Division clash. He highlighted the shortcomings and explained that the team arrived to find a transport and setup far from acceptable, which they felt could impact the players’ focus and readiness for the match. The coach spoke about observing the match protocol rather than inspecting the playing surface, and he stressed that the late arrival of an old, poorly maintained bus wasted valuable preparation time. Such logistical issues, Ignashevich noted, have a real potential to affect a squad’s mental state and concentration when every minute matters on match day. This account was relayed in a post-prep interview with Match TV, underscoring how travel arrangements can shape performance on the road.
