Justin Lonwijk (left; photo: fcdynamo.com)- Congratulations on the confident victory and the first goal for Dynamo! Can we assume that your adaptation in the team is going well?
— I try to constantly progress and better establish gaming connections. I think the adaptation is going well, and every week I improve my interaction with the team.
- You scored five minutes after entering the field, using Tsygankov's assist. Tell me about the goal combination.
- I fought for a long pass, after which I saw that Tsygankov and Vanat went ahead, using the free space. Vitya raised his head and looked to pass to me or Vanat, and chose me. In the end, it turned out to be a good goal.
- Oleksandriya is now higher in the standings than Dynamo. What can you say about the opponent's game?
- Oleksandriya showed a good game, but we must concentrate on getting three points in each match. We lost a lot at the beginning of the championship, so now we have to correct the situation and achieve a 100% result.
- Before your scored goal, Dynamo had a minimal advantage in the score. Did the goal add confidence in the winning result?
— Yes, we controlled the game when we increased the advantage to two goals. Personally, I felt confident, and the opponent no longer created danger. In the moment with the conceded ball, we could have played more accurately in defense, but in general the game was under our control.
- How is your communication with partners? With whom among Ukrainian players do you communicate the most?
— I try to communicate with partners in English, and also gradually learn Ukrainian in order to understand the instructions and tips of the coach. For example, Vanat and other young players communicate well in English. Everyone understands a little English, so there are no problems with communication, communication happens quite naturally.
- Buyalsky scored his 9th goal in the Ukrainian championship today and is the league's top scorer. Is he a key player on the team now?
- I think that Buyalsky's performance is very important for our team, and the position he plays in is also extremely important. Of course, he effectively works for the team, is its leader and the most important element.
