Head coach of Kryvbas Kryvyi Rih Yuriy Vernydub commented on the 1-1 draw in his team's match with Ingulets in the 4th round of the Ukrainian championship.
Yuriy Vernydub"Overall, the game was not bad. But we did not score our chances, of which there were many. I have no complaints about the players. They really wanted to win, but the ball did not go into the net. We had many opportunities to score in both halves.
This is what happens in football. We all have to endure it together, that's the main thing. I think we are ready for this. There are very good days when everything goes well, and then there are bad days. This is life, we will analyze everything.
On Monday, we will train and go to Spain (for the return match against Betis in the playoffs of the Conference League qualifying round - ed. Another road trip, another journey, and we will return just in time for the game with Shakhtar. Playing eight matches in three weeks is still a lot.
I will take responsibility for the selection. It is difficult to replace the guys who have left. For example, Beskorovainyi. While Sasha Romanchuk has already adapted more or less, as well as Drambayev, the rest are still in the process. But that's history, let's move on.
Don't forget that there is a war in Ukraine. Therefore, it is very difficult to play in European competitions because of the constant travel. I don't want to complain, but I can see from the guys that it's not easy for them. Less than three days have passed since the game against Betis. But the team played today and played well. We need to get over it. Who was in the way today? Score and win. But we didn't score. Ingulets, on the other hand, had only one chance, and they drew. It's a shame that we didn't win today, but, again, this is football," Vernydub said.
