Temur Shalamberidze: "We have been Preparing for Final for a Long Time"

 

Temur Shalamberidze became head coach of “Dila” in spring and his team took the fifth place. “Dila” will play in final of Davit Kipiani Cup. Before that, Shalamberidze worked in children’s football.

“World Sport” contacted the head coach of “Dila” and talked to him.

- How is your team preparing for the future match?
- We started meeting at hotel “Tori” yesterday. Before that, we trained in Saguramo. Yesterday we trained on the base of the national team. Today, we will hold training on “Mikheil Meskhi” stadium at 18:00.
- Do you have injured players who will not play in the final?
- Irakli Lekvtadze has not played for one month. He had muscle problem and started training ten days ago. But he has not held a match yet. We have not decided yet if he will be able to play for 20 minutes or half hour. Giorgi Iluridze is training. He also had injury. He played against “Torpedo” but he is not ready for two halves.
-How can you estimate your rival? How must “Dila” play against “Zestafoni” to win the match?
- “Zestafoni” is a good team and plays beautiful football. It will be a difficult match. We must make accent on offence. It will be good if we gain advantage in the center of the field. If we manage to do it, we must play on offence.

- In spite of that you have guaranteed playing at Europa League, perhaps, your main goal is to win Davit Kipiani Cup.
- It is dream of everybody. “Dila” has never won it. We have been preparing for the final for a long time. Some players did not play in the matches of the championship. They were preparing for the ginal.
- After the end of the season, will you continue working for “Dila” or is it depended on result of the final?
- It is not depended on the result. I will meet managers of the club and we will talk about it. It is also interesting for me.
