Interview excerpts

There, coach Viktor Zernov singled out the right-back zone for me. In the opening match, we managed to successfully connect to the attack and earn a pen alty kick, as a result we tied. After returning to Moscow, Zernov described the situation to Romantsev, since then my place has been on the defensive line. This is due to the fact that attacking skills and the ability to quickly connect forward were useful on the cornerback's site.
Uhurries in the "Spartacus" field at the beginning of a career
At the same age school, Ramiz scored a lot of goals. At first he played with coach Chernyshev, who was a goalkeeper in the post-war Spartak. Rotations took place in the seventh grade: those born in August were transferred to a group led by A. M. Ilyin.
Mamedov's standard position loomed under the attackers. Andrey Berlizev and Sergey Krestov, who died in a car accident a few years ago, played in an attacking combination with him.
In junior teams, the athlete played a defender under coach Ignatiev. Practiced frequent joint training. The backup line-up was sometimes stronger than the base, when Ramiz was there, Karpin, Mostovoy played with him. At the end of 1992, Romantsev released a football player in almost every match, although there was no shortage of defense players.
Playing in Ukraine
Ramiz Mammadov is a defender who brought a lot of benefit to Dynamo Kyiv. It so happened that while playing in Portugal, the football player received a call from Surkis. He said that the ticket had already been bought and the player was expected in Kyiv. Mammadov signed a contract for a year, in the European group tournament the team scored 10 points, which made it impossible to go to the playoffs due to personal meetings with the closest competitor, Real Madrid.
The championship had 27 wins, three draws, eventually won the Cup of the country. Everything they could win, and it's very good. The player of the eternal rival in the capital of Ukraine was met without aggression. After all, Ramiz did not just come from the street. He five timeswon the championship of Russia. A certain role was played by the fact that before that the people of Kiev sent Luzhny to Arsenal.
Infrastructure at Dynamo Kyiv is an order of magnitude higher. The uniform was washed here and laid out in lockers. The base in Koncha-Zaspa was luxurious, a similar one was built later in Donetsk. Dynamo had such a base that even Ukrainian officials gathered on the top floor. Surkis welcomed them cordially and regularly.
Intrigue
Several curious cases happened to Ramiz Mammadov. The Portuguese passport was mentioned above. But the following can be said about driving a car and meeting with traffic police officers. Even on the VAZ-2108, the athlete showed his friends how easily the steering column is removed. Moreover, this happened on the go and before the transport was stopped by inspectors. Mammadov did not have time to insert the steering wheel back, threw it aside, and when inspecting the car, the police were very surprised by the absence of a steering wheel.
Conclusion
It was hard for the footballer with physical activity. In Spartak, as a rule, the main work is with the ball, the walls, and in Kyiv, the emphasis on physics is in the first place. Example: A four-on-four game in one half of the field lasts ten minutes, pause, and then repeat. And so every workout for half an hour. The classes were such that a friendly game was considered a vacation.
