Former Veres coach Mykola Lapko shared his impressions of the first rounds of the Ukrainian championship.
- No one could have predicted such results in the first rounds. And you can't say that Kryvbas was weaker than Karpaty. Kryvyi Rih had so many chances in the first half! Score at least one goal and the match could have gone differently. And here it is 3-0, and for those who did not see the game, it is clear that Karpaty were head and shoulders stronger. "Obolon should have put up a fight, but got four dry goals on their own field. I suspect that in a few rounds, Dynamo and Shakhtar will lead the group. But all the teams that will follow and qualify for the European Cup zone will lose points. And when teams lose points, the championship becomes interesting. Last season was very intriguing, and this season promises to surpass it," Lapko is sure.
