Former Dynamo forward Viktor Leonenko spoke about what happened in the Blue and White camp a week before the legendary match with Spartak Moscow (3:2) in the 1994/1995 Champions League.
Viktor Leonenko- In general, the team wanted to remove Jozsef Jozhefovich Sabo. Five people are called: I, Kovalets Luzhny, Shmatovalenko, Shkapenko. I don’t know how Pasha got there, he was young. Well, got it, okay. We arrived at Dynamo, started one by one. They all came out unhappy. They crammed the farrier in general, ran out ... Well, I'm the last one to go in. Well, in general, everyone drowned for Anatoly Demyanenko, so that they would know. Here I go. Medvedchuk and Grigory Mikhailovich say: Demyanenko does not want to be the head coach. Well, of course, everything went down. And I say: if so, then we will continue to endure and suffer. This is how we "seriously" prepared for "Spartak". This is for those who love excuses. Imagine what could have been.
Well, such a story, to be honest, it is not very pleasant, because when the team is already removing you, and you still cling to your teeth - you yourself understand, this is not very good, not like a man. Well, it’s clear that everyone was, of course, not particularly happy, really the whole team. For some reason, Sabo thought that five or six of us there had conspired, everyone was persuaded. I didn't care at all. There will be a coach, there won't be. I still didn't listen to Sabo. But you can say I saved him from being fired with my goals. Well, just in case, let him know. I was then simply told that Szabo should have been fired if we had lost. Here is such a story, - said Viktor Evgenievich in Telegram.
