Former football player of the Ukrainian national team Oleg Shelaev in an interview «Team 1 " named the reasons for the departure of "Zorya" from the European Cups.
Oleg Shelaev— To be honest, I did not expect such a result in Kraiyiv. Unfortunately, the guests were not ready for the hosts' high pressing, which allowed them to create the majority of the game episodes already in the Lugansk half of the field, forcing them to make mistakes. The higher class of "University" was shown, especially in the final stage of attacks. Let us recall how skillfully the owners implemented the mistakes of the Lugansks near their possessions. And "Zorya" created its first dangerous moments, already when it missed three times.
By the way, I was unpleasantly surprised by such metamorphoses in the actions of Zora compared to the match a week ago in Lublin. Because I know from my playing practice that, despite the level of training, the team's emotional reserve is enough for three matches, which allows us to neutralize some of the face-to-face advantages. It's a shame, but you can't say the same about the current Zorya, the expert is confident.
