Lviv Rukh defender Roman Didyk commented on the defeat of his team from Dynamo Kyiv (1:2) in yesterday's match of the final, 30th round of the Ukrainian championship.
"We played against one of the giants of Ukrainian football. Of course, we realised that it would be a difficult match. Although Dynamo took the field without their national team players, but it was not felt, because this team has enough qualified and quality players. There was a serious and strong opponent against us, and it was difficult for us to resist him.
We managed to equalise, but then we conceded a second time, so, unfortunately, this goal did not help us to get the necessary result. Everyone in the team is disappointed now, because everything depended on us: take at least a point in the match with Dynamo and you are in the European Cup. We could not look at the results of other teams, and we hoped only for ourselves. Unfortunately, "Ruch" lost.
But we should make the right conclusions and withstand this painful blow. We will qualitatively prepare for the next season and prove that this team is capable of more. During the year "Ruch" has progressed a lot. We show much better results, we play better football. I want to thank the players and coaching staff for this season and the work done. Our main victories are still ahead," Didyk was quoted by the official website of Ruh.
