Hryhoriy Kozlovsky (photo: fkrukh.com)— After such a victory, the heart rate really goes up. I want to thank the guys. Considering the staffing problems the team faced, three main football players actually dropped out. It was difficult, but the guys had fire, they fought like Cossacks. For the honor of the club, for the honor of the country. I think that such a team, such guys have a future. Such footballers will truly glorify our country. I am proud of them, of the character our team showed.
This game and the result is also an answer to those skeptics who were skeptical about us getting into the UEFA Youth League, and even more skeptical about the results. I am proud that we did not let those who believed in us down. And also for the fact that we have now made the skeptics who did not believe us our sympathizers.
It really is like a dream for us. And this dream continues. I told the guys in the locker room: I thank God and I pray to God that we won't wake up for a long time. I think this dream will continue. And not only this year, but also in the future. Because our Academy, the children we educate, really have a future. This fanaticism, this faith in our Ukrainian boys is transferred to football players.
You saw, 12 teams from different European countries played in Inter. These are gathered football players from Ireland, Serbia, Croatia, France, and other countries. And we have our native Ukrainian children who, in fact, become real football players in such matches. I am really proud of our Ukrainian football! Despite all the problems, he lives and fights for the war going on in our country, Kozlovsky said.
