- The victory over Ingulets was a difficult one...

- "Ingulets are a good opponent. If you give them confidence, it becomes difficult. In the second half we got a bit down, I don't know whether it was the heat or not. But, most importantly, we won.

- What was the reason for the long-lasting failure to score the second goal?

- Guests played with five defenders, it is hard to crack this defence. Only on the counterattack we were able to increase our lead. Nazariy Rusin did a great job.

- The visitors had only one clear goal chance...

- Well done to all the guys, they fought back in that episode.

- What`s Guerrero`s injury?

- I do not know yet.

- Will someone be able to replace him, in case of Paraguay`s absence on Wednesday?

- Of course. We have a wide squad of players. Our head coach will decide everything.

- In the first round Zorya drew with Shakhtar 2-2. What do you remember of that game?

- It was a tough match. In the first half we played much stronger than Shakhtar. But in the second half they put more pressure on us, and it became more difficult. I think that a draw back then was logical.

- Has Shakhtar changed compared to the first round?

- I do not know, we'll see on Wednesday.

- Do you keep in touch with any of Shakhtar's players?

- In the youth team, when we gather, we normally communicate. Probably, we communicate more with Bondarenko and Sudakov.

- What do you expect from the match with the Pitmen?

- We always play to win. We have three finals ahead of us. Zorya can finish either in first or second place.

- Zorya are just two points behind Dnipro 1, who are in the Champions League zone. You saw their game with Kolos. What were your emotions about Sarapiy's goal in the 94th minute of the meeting?

- Of course, I saw the game. We need to watch our game. Our rivals are winning, but we are not behind them.
