After the away match, we talked a lot with the coach. He showed us our mistakes and Real Madrid's weaknesses. Our game today was more confident, we created more chances and could have scored more.
Everyone follows the news and is very worried about Ukraine and their families. Yesterday, the coach gave such a speech to the team that everyone went to the match with thoughts about Ukraine.
During the break, the coaches told us how best to get out of defense. In the first half there was nervousness, and in the second half we were more convincing and self-confident. The feeling of the result is twofold," Zubkov said.
