"Zorya vs Dynamo - 0:3. Aftermatch press conference. Shovkovskiy: "The game was given to us" (VIDEO)

On Thursday, 4 April, in the postponed match of the 6th round of the Ukrainian championship Dynamo Kyiv defeated Zorya Luhansk 3-0. The meeting took place in Kyiv at the Dynamo stadium named after Valeriy Lobanovskiy. Here is the post-match press conference of the teams' coaches.

Oleksandr SHOVKOVSKY, Dynamo head coach:

- I congratulate all Dynamo fans on the victory! We can say that the game was given to us today. And, in principle, I am satisfied with its performance. Yes, it was not without mistakes, but this is football, there is always something to work on.

I also want to thank our defenders and defencewomen, who defend the independence of our country, who give us these important football moments. And we will strive to give them positive emotions from our game.

- When will Yarmolenko be ready to play a full match?

- We have 24 players in the team, and all of them expect to be in the starting lineup. And at any moment they can be in it. When Andriy will be ready and we will see that it is necessary to put him in the starting lineup, then it will happen.

- What tactical instructions did you give to your team during the match?

- What happens in our locker room will stay in our locker room. You can not and will not know about any of our tactical developments. For the most part, today we fulfilled what we agreed with them before the match. We understood what kind of opponent awaits us, we studied it and, of course, we realised that today will be a different game than the one we had in our recent match with Zorya.

- How do you assess Buschan's game?

- Everyone in our team is preparing for the match and everyone has the opportunity to go on the pitch. Buschan, Nescheret and Morgun are the three goalkeepers we count on, and they can substitute one for another at any moment and come out in the starting lineup. I will never be on individuality. The most important thing is that each player fulfils his duties on the pitch. It does not matter who will score a goal, I want everyone to score. But the main thing is that the team fulfils the set-up for the game, delivers the ball into the opponent's penalty area, scores goals and gives positive emotions to our fans.

- Can we say that your team today fully realised what you expected from it in this game?

- I am satisfied with the mood with which the guys came to the game, satisfied with the result, but I can not be completely satisfied with everything: there is always something to improve. If I was satisfied with everything, I would have to finish my coaching career, and I just started it. (Smiling).

Yuriy Koval, head coach of Zorya:

- The commentary on the game will be very short. The score of the game. We were not ready for this match. We move on.

- Did the absence of the players rented from Dynamo today affect the course of the match and the game of your team?

- I do not see the reasons for our defeat. Again, our team was not ready for this game. Moreover, of all the rented Dynamo players only Yatsyk is the main squad player. Voloshin, Bol and Gorbach, if they were on the field today, probably, would have had additional motivation, but a team is a team.
