“Of course, I follow the championship of Ukraine. I try to watch as many matches as possible. I am glad that there is football in Ukraine that they play. So it's nice to watch all the guys. It's nice that they have a job. Thanks to our defenders, thanks to all those who protect our land. Thank you for giving the kids the opportunity to do what they love. Thanks to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, thanks to all those who help to cleanse our land from enemies.

As for the performance of Ukrainian clubs in European competitions, Shakhtar and Dnipro-1 performed well and will continue to play in European competitions. Probably not as many expected and not as the people of Kiev expected, Dynamo performed in the Europa League. But, perhaps, there was such a period. There was some sort of breakdown. The team has something to rethink, there is something to change. Dynamo has an experienced specialist and good players. I think they will figure it out within themselves and next year they will not make such mistakes. This is what I wish them.

I also wish Shakhtar and Dnipro-1 to go as far as possible in European competitions in order to score more points for the rating and prestige of our country,” Filippov said.
