"I have the most questions for Kryvbas players who never made it to the flash zone. Why? For the first time in my 8 years in sports journalism, players from the winning team did not come to me.
And no, the problem is not in the press service, they are great guys and girls, and I am very grateful to them for their help today. What I always lack in Ukrainian sports is mutual respect. Mutual respect between the athlete and the spectator, between the athlete and those who organize the broadcast, work directly at the match, and try to "sell" the match. Finally, between the athlete and the journalist who will take about 4 minutes of your time after the game.
We heard from the vice president that "the guys are frankly for*****," and I understand them, and so does the film crew. We are all for *****. But let's be frank: there are people whose s**t is much bigger. And these are not the players, not me, and not the film crew. I want Ukrainian sports, in particular football, to stop being so infantile. Let's respect each other. And above all, those for whom this match is taking place. Amen," Godunova wrote on her Instagram page.
