Former Dynamo Kyiv and Shakhtar Donetsk striker Emmanuel Okoduwa has revealed that he cannot favor any of his former teams.
Emmanuel Okoduwa"It was a huge honor and privilege for me to play for Shakhtar and Dynamo. I have great respect for both teams. I think I am the only dark-skinned player at this moment, who played for the Kyivians and the Donets. I continue to support them.
I always say that when Dynamo and Shakhtar play each other, I do not support either team. I just sit down, watch the game and let the best one win. If Dynamo attack well, I can say: "Wow, what a good attack" or "What a great goal". But that is not what I am rooting for Dynamo.
Among young Ukrainian players I like Vitaliy Mykolenko and Mykola Shaparenko. I was fond of the second one even before he started to play for the main Dynamo squad. I watched him when he played in the youth team of Kyiv. I love this guy.
I remember Vitaliy Buyalskiy as a very young boy. Oleksandr Khatskevich was the coach who motivated him and made him become the player he is today," Okoduva said.
