The Spartak Fernando midfielder has granted an exclusive interview to Artem Kalinin, Sport24 correspondent

Preparing for the fights in all tournaments, we are expecting a marathon in August [19659005]why last season was formed for "Spartacus" without success?
– After the championship season and the Super Bowl victory, we were given an even greater responsibility burden because we had to defend the title. We did not succeed. It was a good lesson, which I hope I have learned. What is the problem? The failure was the result of a number of factors. First of all, I think that last season each of us could do more to make sure that the team defended the title than was done.

– What, for example? Did you determine that for yourself?
– Of course. And at the end of the season, and during the season, I constantly think about what I did wrong, where I had to play in one way or another. another differently. In particular, many of these thoughts, when the coach puts you on a bench – you start digging in yourself and looking for the reason. To work on oneself is constant. I hope that the other players will also try to get out of it and that we will succeed in the new season

– The performance of the team in Champions League has affected the titles in Russia? ] – If you mean that we somehow saved our strength, then that is not the case. It is unfortunate that it was not possible to win these two games in Maribor, otherwise we would have played much better in the Champions League. I think that such a club as "Spartacus", which has such players who are gathered in our team, must constantly play in the Champions League. I hope that this season we will also play in this tournament.

– In the summer, the preparation of the team has changed considerably compared to last season. Which system do you prefer?
– Indeed, the training system has changed a lot. If last year we focused on physics and strength training, now we are working more with the ball. I can not say that one system is good and the other bad. They are just different. But, I will not lie, now I love him more. No footballer will tell you that he likes running or doing weight training. We are constantly on the field, constantly with the ball, and through this work and through the matches we are gaining physical fitness.

– What is the main feature of the new badistant Mbadimo Carrera Raul Riancho? I see that at the training, you spend a lot of time supporting and playing on the defensive.
– That's right. Modern football is built on these principles – an active and aggressive game in defense, pressure, quick selection of the ball. The reason is that the team that owns the ball spends less energy – it does not need to select it. That's what we are training: explosive work, jerks to choose the ball, to keep it, to gain strength.

– Did Your Position on the Field and Your Requirements Change
? – Personally, I am not. The changes concern more team work. We learn both in attack and defense to act as a team, to play in a compact manner. If we manage to automate these actions, I'm sure it will help us a lot in the season.

– Who would you like to play in the Champions League?
– Yes, it's the Champions League – there will be no weak rivals. Moreover, we are preparing for real battles, not only in the European competition. We have an August marathon in front of us. We all remember the failure of last season, losing a lot of matches in the summer. Therefore, now it is particularly important to start well in the league. Well, enter the group stage of the Champions League. Any footballer of "Spartak" understands that it is important for him personally, for the team and for the entire club.

It's easier to wear winter in Russia – there is heating

– Tell us how you got into football?
– I was born in the small town of Ereshin in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. In football, it turned out, it can be said, in four years. My dad worked in a local team and always brought me to work. I have therefore joined the football life. Well, when I was five, he had already identified me as a coach, and I started studying.

– How did your family live?
– We lived badly, but did not starve – just below average. Dad, as I said, was working in a football club, my mother was a chef. At the age of 11, I went to the Gremio Academy and since then I have not really returned home. I only traveled to visit my parents

– Were they confronted with crime as children? In favelas wandered?
– Well, there is no favela at Ereshin, but they are at
Rio de Janeiro, where I live with my family now. To be honest, crime is a big problem for Brazil, and we have to recognize that. Thus, at Ereshin, there are places where it is better not to look even during the day

– So you, various incidents that occur regularly in Brazil in the streets, have been avoided?
– With me, thank God, nothing has happened. But I have repeatedly witnessed various crimes. For example, you stand at a traffic light, and in front or on the side of a car rides, people run from there and start to steal the nearby car. Or once once with his wife in Rio came back from a cafe and went through a tunnel pbading over the favela of Rosinha. Suddenly we look – everything is surrounded by the police. It turned out that there was a skirmish at the end of the tunnel. One had to turn one's head and go out of the meeting to the opposite – everything was in place for a long time

– Did you have to fight in street fights in my childhood or in my youth?
– To be honest, I never learned to fight. So, if an accident happens on the ground, the first one will come to me (laughs). At Ereshin, as I said, it was rather calm. Childhood was spent on the street with friends we constantly played football with.

– I understand that the south of Brazil in the climate is not very different from Ukraine and Russia. We also have winter, yes. But it's hot in Ereshin, it's really hot. And if it's cold, it's freezing. It's much easier for me to endure the winter in Russia, because you have heating! And at Ereshin, you go in winter, pulling on all the warm clothes that are in the house – even wearing a hat. That's why I moved to Rio

– and why did not they take their parents?
– It is almost impossible to get them anywhere from their hometown. Despite the fact that my father is 68 years old and my mother is 65 years old, they lead a very active life. They have a house, a house plot, neighbors, friends … When they stayed with me in Moscow a month later they asked to go home – they were bored. And they do not stay long in Rio. Still, is the same metropolis where there is no other rhythm of life and none of your friends.

– Have you some a memorable history of childhood?
– I have already told that my first scholarship to Gremio – about 15 euros for modern money – was enough for shampoo, soap and cake. But she has a sequel. I spent all my money and Christmas was coming. And now I'm sitting on the base alone – all the guys have come home, – tears in their eyes, and I do not know what to do. Everything was solved happily: my parents took money from someone and sent me a ticket to go home. I have therefore met the party with them.

– Gabriel Jesus painted in 2014 the boundaries of the World Cup home, and now he is a player of the national team. In Brazil, you can always find talent in the street?
– Yes. Jesus was then engaged in football school, but, really, painted these boundaries. In our country, young talents appear more often, and, all the younger ones. Only this summer, Arthur, who is 21 years old, has moved to Barcelona for 30 million euros, and Real Madrid has bought Vinicius Junior, who has just turned 18. For 45 million people, he has just turned 18 years old. Ukraine, nor in Russia

– was not it scary to move to Ukraine? Still, Brazilians are more likely to travel to Western Europe.
– It was like this: I was in the national team when I received an offer from Shakhtar. We played in the Confederations Cup. The flours of choice began – I just broke all my head at the time.

Googled, learned that Shakhtar is a good club, playing regularly in the Champions League. The proposal was also tempting. But around everyone has begun to discourage: where you go, it's where the devil knows where; there is nothing to do – neither to relax nor to buy anything … The fact that the Ukrainian league in Brazil is not particularly watched, and that the World Cup was approaching in my homeland, where I really wanted to talk. As a result, I accepted the offer of Shakhtar, stayed there two years, but so clearly and did not play. Then there was a year in Sampdoria, where we did not ask either. And now he was in "Spartacus".

– And why did not that happen in Shakhtar? Have not you found a common language with Mircea Lucescu?
– When I arrived at Shakhtar, there were already 13 Brazilians. Many of them were older and more experienced than me. A lot of time has been spent on adaptation. Lucescu did not see me as a base player, rarely releasing on the field. But I am very grateful for the time we have worked together. He constantly spoke with me, something, invited, advised. I can only say good words about him

– Why, in your opinion, did he fail Zenit?
– A good question, but it is not easy to answer. Lucescu worked in Shakhtar for more than ten years (twelve – Sport24), obtaining excellent results. One of his "chips" was the acquisition of young players, even "green". They were for him like material, which he shaped what he needed, adapting to his tactical and technical needs. After working with him in a big football, Luis Adriano, Douglas Costa, Alex Teixeira, Fernandinho, Jadson and others showed up. And for Shakhtar, it was a great deal: they bought players, raised them, and then sold them. In "Zenith", I think he just did not have the time – he worked all season.

– Was your way of life in Donetsk different from that of Moscow?
– Oh no. I am a natural person by nature, so I did not go anywhere specially. Except in a cafe or shopping

– Have not you become addicted to borsch in Ukraine?
– No. To be honest, I have never tried it in Ukraine or Russia. I do not really like soups

– But Tarasovsky borsch is one of the symbols of Spartak …
– Well, then we should try

– There were still friends or relatives knowledge in Ukraine
– Remained only the Brazilian contacts, who still play or until recently played in the Shakhtar – Bernard, Tyson, other guys. We meet periodically with them, we find ourselves on holiday in Brazil.

The Shakhtar was afraid, especially when the plane fell

– You left Shakhtar just when the situation in Ukraine worsened. How did you see it?
– Yes, I spent two seasons in the team. We lived alone in Donetsk, and the second team was already based in Kiev

– Was it scary?
– It's scary. Especially when this plane fell. After that, my family immediately called and told me to collect things and return to Brazil. I replied that I can not. We lived in a constant tension. The field of information was appropriate. They knew that somewhere people were not far away. We went to training after barricades and cords

– Why did not they follow the parents' advice and did not go home?
– Well, how? I have the same contract. In addition, we were so quickly badembled and removed from Donetsk that we did not understand anything at first. Right there, as I understood, the fighting was about to begin, and we were rushed to Kiev. We did not have enough time to put things together. So they later lived between Kiev and Lviv

– Where did they get information about what was happening in the country?
– Like everything else, we watched television. They did not understand what they say, but they saw the image . They came to the club, they asked people what was going on. Nobody really explained anything. We were called from the Brazilian Embbady, ​​we were ordered to be on suitcases – in which case we were ready to be quickly expelled from the country.

– Have not we been negative towards Russia? that something does not happen between Ukraine and Russia. I heard the names: Crimea, Donetsk, Lugansk. But after all the Brazilian – as I can understand, who is right and who is guilty. I do not know the history of countries, the cultural situation, no political context of these events. In general, I try not to get too involved in politics. I can judge the situation in Brazil as a citizen of the country and a common man on the street. We have a crisis, we are not doing well in politics. But about the Russo-Ukrainian relations I can not express a competent opinion

– With someone of Shakhtar maintains contact –
– I repeat – with the Brazilians. Bernard left, Marlos got Ukrainian citizenship, there was still Tyson and Dentinho. With the latter I communicate more often. But, as far as I know, they recruited more Brazilians – there are about 10 people in Shakhtar now.

– Do you have any news? What is the current situation?
– Guys say the situation has stabilized. They continue to live in Kiev, they play in Kharkov in the former Metalist stadium. Of course, football in the country because of all these events have suffered a lot. Disappeared teams as strong as "Dnepr", "Metalist" …

I would have thought of the performance for Russia, if I had not played for Brazil

– Now, there will be a series of questions from Twitter fans. First of all – would you like to play for the Russian national team, be it possible?
– Well, hypothetically speaking, I would have thought of such an option. Now, we have a striking example of Mario Fernandez. In Brazil, everyone is delighted with his performance at the World Cup for the Russian team. He is practically a hero. Therefore, if I did not play for the national team of my country, I would consider such an opportunity.

– What is your main disadvantage as a football player?
– Yes, I would like to add a lot. But the main thing is probably – I'd better play my head

– Did you try to repeat Roberto Carlos's blow of the game against the French in 1997?
– I remember that goal. I sat in front of the TV, I was sick for the national team and I was shocked by Carlos' impact. I have not tried to repeat it – I do not have a hit too hard. 19659007] – What are the three best authors of penalties according to you?

– Juninho Pernambucano, Ronaldinho and Marcos Assunsao

– Do you follow a diet?
– Diet, of course, is present, as with any athlete. There is special food. I have to limit myself to something

– Do you have favorite dishes of Brazilian and Russian cuisine?
– I am generally unpretentious about food. But if fans want to hear something, I love the shurasco of Brazilian cuisine and the Russian beef stroganoff

– What do you do during your free time?
– I spend time with my family. This can not be done so often, so such moments are especially valuable. I also like watching movies or TV shows.

– Which series do you like?
– "House of Cards", "Escape from Prison", "Mechanism."

– "The Game of Thrones". And what, a good TV series? Well, then I went to look …

– Why did you give up your instagram for six months already?
– I'm coming back, do not worry. Only the season will begin.

Vida disrespected shouting "Glory to Ukraine!"

– For whom were the Brazilians sick?
– He was sick for Russia. First, played three Spartacists. Second, my good friend Mario Fernandez spoke for her. Well, third, this team, with limited resources, showed a very good football

– With Fernandez about the clash between "Spartacus" and the CSKA, the 39 another does not pinch
– No. Mario and I do not even talk about football at all. Марио этого не любит, к тому же, мы друг друга знаем сто лет – еще со времен "Гремио". . Так что подобных шуток нет

– Почему, на ваш взгляд, сборная Бразилии вылетела так рано – в четвертьфинале
– Чемпионат вообще получился довольно непредсказуемым. Кто думал, что Бразилия вылетит так рано? Кто думал, что Хорватия дойдет до финала? На первое место вышли интенсивность игры, скорость, агрессия, бойцовские качества. Возможно, этого нашей сборной и не хватило.

– Особенно в исполнении Неймара.
– Ну, что тот скажешь. Знаю, что много шуток сейчас по поводу е не падений и катаний по полю. Но его ведь реально постоянно лупят со всех сторон. Не забывайте также, что он совсем недавно восстановился после травмы. . Возможно, боязнь рецидива тоже влияет

. – Где смотрели матчи чемпионата мира
– Когда были тренировки в Москве, то смотрел игры дома. А в Австрии я, Зе Луиш, Роша и Мельга приходили в комнату к Луису Адриано and смотрели у него.

– В Москве в центр не ездили?
– Ездил. Был на Никольской. Просто сумасшествие – очень много народу. Бразильцы, мексиканцы, перуанцы, аргентинцы … Некоторые узнавали меня, фотографировались

. – Кто, на ваш взгляд, был лучшим игроком турнира
– Конечно, Лука Модрич. Он демонстрировал просто сумасшедший футбол. Еще отмечу Эдена Азара. . Бельгия вообще смотрелась поинтереснее Хорватии, но благодаря Модричу хорваты добились большего

– В курсе истории с видео Домагоя Виды и Огнена Вукоевича
– Да, читал про это. Считаю, совсем необязательно было так говорить. Да, вы обыграли сборную России, но зачем все это? . На мой взгляд, таким образом Вида проявил неуважение

– Что нужно сделать Фернандо, чтобы через четыре года в составе сборной Бразилии сыграть на ЧМ в Катаре
– Много работать. Помогать «Спартаку», завоевывать с ним титулы. Очень хочу, чтобы это у меня получилось.
