"Dynamo U-19" defender: "When I'm ready for the Dynamo first team, the coaches will tell me about it"

"Dynamo U-19" defender Nazar Balaba talked about his game for Kyiv, and also answered various questions.

Nazar Balaba

— Why did you decide to play football? Do you like other sports?

— My dad was a football player since childhood, he taught me about football and saw my talent, that I like football. At the age of 6, he went to the football section, somehow everything turned around, and at the age of 12 he moved to Kyiv to the Dynamo Academy. I like other sports, for example, tennis, I like basketball, but if I follow other sports very often, then no.

— Your team beat Kharkiv "Metalist" with a score of 5:0, what do you think of the result?

— Really, I am very happy for our team, I am very satisfied with the game, although I did not play today, but you can see how we have progressed since the beginning of the season and I am very glad that today there were a lot of moments, we scored a lot, because in every match there are many moments, but we win minimally. So today our team showed that we can claim the championship this year

— In this game, Ihor Kostyuk could not count on you, because you were a disqualified center back, do you regret it?

— Of course, I regret that I could not help the team today. But this is football, I did not hold back my emotions in the last match and received an unnecessary yellow card. But I am very happy that the team won today and I supported them from the stands.

- Do you like to travel or do you prefer to play at home?

- It is better to play at home on your home field! But I don't mind traveling, I like to play football and I don't care where.

— How do you rate the games of the first team?

— Of course I can't evaluate the first team because I don't play at their level. But of course when the first team doesn't win, we feel disappointed. I think that after the vacation, the players will rest and please us with victories.

— Who from the team do you consider your best friend?

— Yura Avramenko.

— Who is the favorite at the World Cup?

— France.

- Messi or Ronaldo?

— Probably Messi, but I also like Ronaldo.

— Do you think you are ready to play for the first team?

— I feel that I can progress further and this is not yet my maximum. I work every day to get into the first team like the other guys. But when I'm ready for the first team then, I think the coaches will tell me that. The main thing now is to work and not stop, and time will tell if I can reach the level of the first team.

— Which of the guys is the soul of the company? And who is always serious?

- Oh, it's hard to say for sure, we don't have anything to highlight. We have a good atmosphere in our team and each of the guys can and knows how to joke. And the guys who are older are probably more serious, they can calm down and lead the team when needed.

- Are you cheerful? Is it more serious?

— I'm more of a golden mean. I'm more relaxed, but not serious

— You already have a vacation, how do you plan to spend these days?

— I want to be with my parents, go visit my relatives, and then I will go on vacation with a friend from the team and I will prepare a little for the start of the meeting

- Where are you flying to?

— Austria, Vienna

- Do you know English? Will it help you?

— I know something at an average level. Of course, I feel comfortable in other countries

— What should an ideal girl be like to be able to conquer Nazar Balaba's heart?

— I don't know what a girl should be like. I have to feel it. As long as I'm alone and I'm fine, I think about football and I'm not distracted.

— Favorite player, UPL and EPL club.

— UPL — Zabarny (Dynamo); EPL for sure Ruben Diaz, club "Arsenal".
