Oleksandr Babich: “I am not disappointed with either Dynamo's game or the result. In the championship of Ukraine, the team will

Well-known Ukrainian coach Oleksandr Babich analyzed the game of Dynamo Kyiv in yesterday's match of the 5th round of the Europa League group stage with Cypriot AEK (3:3).

Alexander Babich

- Dynamo started the game well with AEK, created the first chance in the match, which inspired me, Babich noted. — But then AEK seized the initiative, created serious chances and scored spectacular and logical goals.

What I paid attention to is the functional state of the people of Kiev. Despite the fact that Mircea Lucescu spoke about the fatigue of the team, Dynamo did not look doomed. Garmash and the legionnaires of the white and blue came out very successfully to replace. The Kievans, with a score of 3:3, could even snatch a victory...

- Did Mircea Lucescu make the right personnel decisions this time?

— Yes, absolutely. Firstly, Lucescu guessed right with Vanat in the starting lineup, who, due to his speed on the pressure, kept the opponent's defense in constant tension. Also, as I have already noted, the substitutions during the match were successful. All Dynamo players who appeared on the field after the break were maximally charged for the fight and were able to turn the game around that was almost lost.

— But there is something to criticize Dynamo for...

- Undoubtedly. The people of Kiev should have paid more attention to Altman, who scored two goals. The rivals quite easily overcame the resistance on the flank, and Zabarny and Sirota, unfortunately, lost the horse fight. The first goal conceded is the mistake of both central defenders, and the second is the mistake of Sirota specifically.

- Have you noticed changes for the better in the game of the "white-blues"?

- In general, there is no improvement yet. If Dynamo had played the entire group stage in the Europa League the way it did after Garmash and the legionnaires entered the match against AEK, then the result would have been different. I expect more flank passes from the people of Kiev, because this is their forte.

And yet, it must be admitted that in the match of the 5th round, the "white-blue" showed their character and got a well-deserved draw. In addition, it is now obvious that Dynamo have legionnaires who can improve the game. Now the people of Kiev, of course, will focus on playing in the Ukrainian championship.

- Can a draw with AEK be the starting point for positive changes in Dynamo?

- From this draw, of course, there are more positive than negative emotions. Although the missed goals upset. But once again, let's pay attention to the fact that I did not see fatigue in Dynamo. On the contrary, it was noticeable that now the White-Blues have leaders on the field, they have character. You just need to find the key to this team. It's nice that after the score became 1:3, Lucescu's wards increased their aggression, which hasn't happened for a long time. But the victory of the people of Kiev with a score of 4:3 would be a real miracle.

- Is Denis Garmash the real hero of the match?

- He is the leader. It was all his goals. Yes, Garmash is the man of the match, but I would also note the game of Buyalsky, who did a lot of rough work - the same pass to Vanat is worth a lot. I note that Dynamo lacked Shaparenko.

As for Vanat, his football is not yet very suitable for the classic Dynamo style. However, in the match with AEK, Vanat diversified the game of Dynamo and did not leave the number on the field. He has a perspective, he has a scoring instinct. Vanatu needs to be added in physics, matted. I believe that he uses his chance well.

- What is your final assessment of Dynamo's performance in the Europa League?

- Let me tell you about the match with AEK - I am not disappointed either with the game of the Kiev team or with the result. I think that Dynamo will still improve in the Ukrainian championship.
