News from the camp of the rival Dynamo Kyiv in Group B of the Europa League. The head coach of the Turkish Fenerbahce Jorge Jesus commented on his team's victory over the Cypriot AEK (2:0) in yesterday's match of the 3rd round of the Europa League group stage.
“I want to congratulate the players of our team. It was a match in which we showed a very high quality game. First of all, in defense. AEK simply didn't have any chances at our gates, with the exception, perhaps, of one episode, when Alioski's individual mistake took place.
As for our game in attack, I want to say that we scored a lot less goals than we had the opportunity to excel. Today we scored 2 goals, but it could have been 5 or 6.
From the point of view of collective action, our team played brilliantly today. Again, we didn't miss out, which is a concrete indication of how good our defensive organization is. I also want to note that the players who came on as a substitute improved the attacking qualities of the team. At the same time, they performed their defensive duties in the best possible way, which is important, ”Jesus said at the post-match press conference.
