Moses admitted that he is not a player known for scoring goals week in, week out and hopes to keep firing on all cylinders.
Indeed, the last time the 2017 Premier League winner managed to score in back-to-back games prior to the trip to Krasnodar was in the second half of the 2020-2021 season when he found the net against Dynamo Moscow and Rostov.
In recent seasons, the goals have not been flowing for Moses as he is tasked with defensive and offensive duties as a right wingback, compared to his younger years when he played as a winger and striker.
Speaking to Spartak's official YouTube channel, Moses stated : "It was good to get on the scoresheet. I'm not that player that everyone knows at scoring goals every week.
"But I will do my best to help the team, the team comes first. The only thing is to add my quality to what we already have here.
"We'll keep working together as a team. I am pleased with the way I have started and hopefully I'll keep the momentum going."
Moses spent nine years at Chelsea, scoring 18 goals in 128 all-competition appearances while providing thirteen assists.
