Ihor Yavorsky: "Popov and Mykhavko were among the best on the field"

Famous Ukrainian coach Ihor Yavorsky has praised the performance of Dynamo Kyiv in the Champions League qualifying match against Rangers, in which the Kyiv team won 2-0:

"This season, Kyiv has made a significant improvement. The team is well prepared functionally, which allows them to maintain a high pace. We have enough strength to skillfully press the opponent at their goal. The speed of the passes has increased, which helps to act more efficiently in a positional attack. Dynamo have done a good job with the selection process and now they have a long bench.

It is important that the Kyiv team is working hard to correct mistakes. Let's remember how in the first match with Glasgow Rangers in Lublin the defense line was not infallible, and this time in Glasgow, the stops Popov and Mikhavko were among the best on the field, more confident in the selection. Well done to them.

The only thing Dynamo still lack in matches of this level is a striker who plays at the forefront of the attack. Vanatta is diligent, he moves a lot, but he lacks strength in the fight against the Grenadier defenders. He also lacks concentration. Remember how in Glasgow Vanat lost a duel with the home goalkeeper in stoppage time. It's good that the score was already 2-0," said Yavorsky.
