- We fulfilled the head coach's instructions. Everyone was determined to the maximum before this meeting.
- How long was the installation before the cup match?
- About 15 minutes. It is fast. Everyone knows how Dynamo Kyiv plays. All the guys understood what the coaching staff required from us.
- How did you feel after the scored goal?
- They wanted to change me during the second half, but I scored in time.
- Watching the game from the bench, were you very worried?
- A lot. The score 1-0 is quite dangerous. The end of the match was nervous. If not for our goalkeeper Artem Kichak, I do not know how the game would have turned out. He saved the team. Now, after this victory, we can say that all the players, members of the coaching staff and our fans deserve this success.
- Was it unexpected to see so many changes in your starting lineup, compared to the game in the championship against Veres?
- Our head coach gives every player a chance. Who is better prepared - the one who plays.
- Did the club president come to congratulate the guys in the locker room?
- He came to the locker room, but at that moment I was still communicating with our fans, who supported us outside the stadium.
- Now you have to wait for the Cup draw. Who would you like to get on?
- Shakhtar. We'd better get on the champion right away. We will go out and fight on the pitch. We want to please the guys from ZSU and our fans.
- Do Obolon players have a day off on Thursday?
- No. We have training. Those who played more - recovery, and those who played less - full training. Ahead is a trip to Uzhgorod, where we will meet with "Minay". We will tune up for this match.
- Will you remember this meeting for a long time?
- Absolutely. It's not every day I play against Dynamo Kyiv. Although, earlier, I played in Dynamo for a year and a half. I was born in 1995 and Roman Yaremchuk played with me. And from the current squad I do not know anyone personally.
