Defender of Kryvyi Rih "Kryvbas" Vitaly Vernydub told the club's press service about the away match of the 2nd round of the championship of Ukraine against Shakhtar Donetsk - 0:1.
— We played well, a lot came out. Acted compactly, reliably in defense. Somewhere in Shakhtar is a class higher, so they had an advantage, it was difficult at the end of the match. Moreover, we finished playing in the minority, there was a relegation. It hit the team very hard psychologically. You have to analyze the game and take a step forward. We have time to discuss mistakes among ourselves, analyze and correct everything. You can't play like that. After all, we lose the second match because of these damn standards.
All the guys are well done. After all, they were not afraid of the opponent, they played their football. And in such matches courage is very necessary. Courage to win. They looked very nice. With such young talented performers in Kryvbas, everything will be fine in the future, Vernydub said.
