Spartak Moscow striker Manfred Ugalde shared his thoughts on the match against Orenburg in the FONBET Russian Cup quarter-finals (3-1), where he celebrated his first victory for the Moscow club.
I am so happy, it was a tough match against Orenburg, but we managed to turn the tide of the game. Now we will focus on the national team matches. I really enjoyed playing at home, there is a wonderful atmosphere here. It was important for me to win the first match at Spartak Stadium. We are Spartak, we must be ready to compete in two tournaments at once, we have enough skills to handle our tasks in the best way possible.

Spartak acquired Ugaldel from Twente at the beginning of this year for 13 million euros. The match against Orenburg was the third for the forward with the Moscow club. The Red-and-Whites advanced further in the upper bracket of the tournament, and they will find out their semi-final opponent in the Russian Premier League on March 15 after the draw.
