Former Dynamo Kyiv coach Jozsef Szabo spoke out on the results of his former club's defeat to Chornomorets Odessa (2:3) in yesterday's match of the 4th round of the Ukrainian championship.
"We did not see anything new. Again there were a lot of mistakes. Kyivians seem to be stronger, but make a lot of mistakes that lead to conceded goals.
In this game there were mistakes on both sides. But to lose in the last seconds - what was the centre-back doing there? I have no words... If you go through all the goals, analyse them, I will say one thing: I am surprised that such players play in the UPL... Low level of football in the performance of both teams.
Why climb with the ball on three? Is it not easier to pass to the left or right? The ball was taken away, attack, goal - 2:2. Unfortunately, very weak football.
What to do with the problematic defence? And where to get players? No one goes to the tackling, they are afraid that they will not have time, that there will be a penalty. The first conceded goal - Buyalskyi was near and did not attack. In football you need to do everything - both tackling and attacking. All you had to do was just not to let the shot go in. But when players hit, I close my eyes out of fear, because the ball flies to an unknown place. If there were spectators on the second or third floor, it would hit them. The legionnaires left in the UPL are of very low quality. Ours are hitting the sky too. It's just unpleasant to watch.
What will Lucescu change if there is no-one to do it with? Players make a lot of mistakes, do not give 100%, because they consider themselves the leading performers in the team. That's no way to play football. If there is no skill, then play simply. It so happened that Dynamo lost in this match, but in such a championship nobody will fire Lucescu. He will not go anywhere now and will finish his contract, no matter what anyone says. Let Shovkovskiy work as an assistant, and already for the next championship will take the team and give the result," - quotes Sabo 1927.kiev.ua.
