Giorgi Chanturia, midfielder of “Alania” Vladikavkaz, who was sent off in the match against “Dynamo” Moscow (1:0) told “Sport-Express” that opponent football player provoked him.

- What would you say about your sent off?

- Kokorin provoked the quarrel. He acted very angry and I could not stop myself. Of course, I am not right because you must control your emotions on the field.

- Why did you play in lineup of “Alania” only at the end of the season?

- It was the decision of the coach. I think I was on good playing form and I could play. Perhaps, the coach thought that others were on better form. I proved that I am useful for the team but unfortunately, the season is coming to an end.

- Will you say in “Alania” in the next season?

- If I can I will. Fans are good to me and now I play in lineup. I play for “Alania” on loan and I have contract with “Vitesse”. So, I have to return to Holland. I will always remember my time in Vladikavkaz.
