Dnipro 1 striker Oleksandr Filippov spoke about the specifics of his team's work at the off-season training camp in Turkey.
"In the morning we have hard work on the sand, perhaps not everyone likes it. There we do different exercises: running, relay races.... But we are all professionals and we understand that we need to do all this in order to be in the best shape to approach the second stage of the championship. And in the evening we work at the stadium, where the field is good, so we have good conditions for everything.
Defeat from "Sturm" (1:2- ed.) in the first control match? It is palpable that this team is already ready for their championship, because they have spent more time at the training camp and are on the finishing line. We have just started our training camp, so we are with Sturm on different poles of preparation. Especially since we are now playing under pressure. A training camp is a training camp. Something worked, something - not, but I believe that with each test match we will gain conditioning and approach a more optimal form", - Filippov was quoted by the official website of Dnipro-1.
