Zorya Luhansk head coach Valerii Kryventsov has revealed what he expects from his side's match against Icelandic side Breidablick in the 2nd round of the Conference League group stage.
Valery Kriventsov"We will play one of the leaders of Icelandic football. The team has skilled players and team spirit. They know how to act in all phases of the game.
If I'm not mistaken, Breidablick is the first club in Icelandic football to play in the group stage of European competitions. Therefore, it is a double motivation for them. Plus the support of the stands. They lost the first leg to Maccabi, so they will try to win at home.
I watched the first game of Breidablik in the group round of the Conference League. "Maccabi scored three quick goals. But then Bradblick, given that they were playing away and that they didn't have a good game in the first 30 minutes, managed to get two goals back. We could have drawn or even won. Our opponent deserves attention.
Are bookmakers' predictions in favour of Bradblok? Our team doesn't pay attention to that. First of all, we have to look at our actions, how we play, how we keep our discipline. If the guys manage to show everything we practise in training, then we will have a positive result. Everyone can play football now. There is no need to look at the country or the name of the club. Everyone knows how to defend and attack," Kriventsov said at the pre-match press conference.
