- You didn't play in the previous match against Veres. How would you rate the team's performance?

- In general, I liked the game. We won 3-0 and didn't concede. Yes, it was hard, because the opponent defended with the whole team, so we didn't have many chances. But, in principle, we fulfilled the task.

- In such a situation, it is important to score the first goal, which will force the opponent to open up?

- Yes, it is. Then we have free areas, and then it becomes a little easier. That's how it happened, after the first goal we scored the second and third, eventually winning.

- Recently, you have been playing in the main line-up, but missed the last match. What was the reason for that?

- It was the coach's decision. Thank God, everything is fine with my health.

- Are you more nervous watching from the bench?

- Yes, you don't feel the same excitement on the pitch. When you come out in the line-up, there is a certain nervousness before the match, but it disappears in the game.

- The Ukrainian championship is in the home stretch. What do you expect from the final rounds?

- Only victories. We have to take the maximum and we are counting only on the championship.

- Will the fate of the championship be decided in the match against Shakhtar?

- Every match is important - both with Shakhtar and Kolos.

- The next match is against Kovalivka. What do you think of your future opponent, what did you remember about the previous match with them?

- A very good selection of players, they play well in defence. As far as I remember, they conceded the fewest goals among all the teams. So we are expecting a difficult game, so we are seriously preparing for this match.

- What do you need to do to avoid unpleasant surprises, like in the first round when we drew 1-1?

- The coaching staff will definitely tell us how to act to avoid the same mistakes. If we follow the set-up, we will succeed.

- Kolos have drawn a lot of games this season...

- Yes, they concede few goals, but they also score few. Hence the results.

- Tell us about today's training session: how did it go, what did you do?

- As usual, we are preparing for the match against Kolos. The loads are not heavy, as we had a match the day before yesterday and the next one the day after tomorrow.

- Given that you play twice a week, do you make any adjustments to your training?

- Yes, of course, the workload is much less than when we play once a week. In general, training is purely for emotions, plus we work tactically.

- When the team wins, is the mood in the team good even without that?

- Of course. Everyone is happy and the atmosphere is very good.

    Хороший футболист - Александр
    Но, как по мне, не может до конца реализовать свой потенциал.
    Обладает великолепным ударом! А бьёт крайне мало и часто совершенно плохо (((
    Супер пас.... а даёт чаще назад... видимо, стопор в голове какой-то
