Nazar Voloshyn (photo: fcdynamo.com)- How are you feeling before the final matches of the season? Do you feel tired yet?
- There is a bit of fatigue, but it's okay, it's normal. We are preparing for Kryvbas.
- Your professional career started in Kryvbas. What can you say about this club?
- It's a very good team, with a lot of very strong players. I know they will fight, so the next game is going to be tough.
- Will the game be important for Kryvbas despite the lack of tournament intrigue?
- I think so, because for every team, a victory over Dynamo is a matter of principle. So our task is not to give them a chance to do so.
- Now Kryvbas has changed significantly compared to the team you were with...
- Yes, because a lot of new players have joined the team, including foreigners. The team has changed significantly.
- Is bronze a deserved result for Kryvbas?
- I think so, because they had a very good season. The team's game is well set up. The third place is well deserved for them.
- Today, during the warm-up, the coaches used new interesting exercises, does it increase interest and charge you with positive energy?
- We have already done today's workouts before. Sometimes there are exercises that make you smile. In general, we always have to work to the maximum, because each of us has to get better every day.
- You almost always stay after training to kick a goal. Do you have enough energy for that?
- I want to train more. I like to practice shots on goal. So we're happy to stay with the guys and hit the goal, compete.
- Today you had a header duel with Vanat. Who was the winner?
- When we filmed the challenge, he won. But I won first.
- Vanat is a contender for the title of the season's top scorer. Will you pass to him if you find yourself in equally favourable positions in front of the goal?
- Of course, I will. It's great to have the league's top scorer in the team. But he will find the moment himself, he has that feeling of scoring.
- You also have the best goal and assist tally of your career this season. Do you keep track of your statistics and try to improve them?
- I try to score as many as possible. But I don't dwell on it, I score as many as I can.
