Dynamo Kyiv goalkeeper Heorhiy Buschan summarised the results of his team's match with Poltava Vorskla (5:1) in the 22nd round of the Ukrainian Championship, which took place last Sunday in Poltava.
George Buschan- Taking into account the pauses for air raids, today's match lasted five and a half hours. With that in mind, how difficult was this match?
- It turned out to be really difficult, but first of all due to the fact that we gathered in full strength only two days ago, when all our "national team" players returned. The first matches after the pause for the national team games are always difficult. Today, the pitch was a bit difficult as well. Finally, we faced a motivated opponent. So it was a bit difficult. And of course, these pauses due to air raids are also exhausting....
- What do you do during these pauses?
- Well... Everything is standard. We come to the dressing room, take off our boots, wait for the alarm to end. Then we get dressed and go to the warm-up.
- "Vorskla" today had several dangerous moments in your goal. What was the consequence of it?
- I think that our mistakes and active actions of "Vorskla" in attack.
- Did you expect Vorskla to play so actively in attack?
- Yes. Vorskla are always interesting matches. So we knew what kind of opponent awaits us, we respect them, but we also need to win.
- One of the significant events of today's match was the return to the field after a long pause Andriy Yarmolenko....
- Yes, we congratulated him on his return. We hope that in the future he will be with us and will help us to win.
- Soon again the match with "Zorya". The upcoming game will be more difficult than the recent meeting with this team?
- Yes, of course. Then the weather conditions were difficult, and Zorya were missing a number of players. So we are expecting a very difficult match.
