The season lasts a year and you can't be satisfied with one victory and catch euphoria. Only half of the championship has passed and it is still too early to talk about anything. So far, there are only subtotals. We have another six months ahead of us, where we need to win, and not talk about how we beat Dynamo led by Lucescu or Shakhtar. It doesn't work that way.
Who do I see as the main competitor of Dnipro-1 in the fight for the championship? It is difficult to single out someone, because there are many good teams in Ukraine. In addition to "Shakhtar" and "Dynamo", I will mention "Zorya" and "Olexandria". These teams looked good in the first part of the season. I think the intrigue in the fight for the championship will last until the last round. This championship of Ukraine has repeatedly surprised with unexpected results.
We have very strong rivals who will also try to achieve a positive result. The second part of the season will show whether we are capable of something serious or not," said Kucher.
