Yuri Vernidub. Photo — Y. Yuriev- There's not much to say. We lost again, now to Dynamo. We will move on, we will prepare for the next matches.
In the first half we conceded two goals very quickly. Something did not go well for us. Then we scored in the end of the half.
In the second half we wanted to score more, and Dynamo wanted to keep the result. That's how it ended. Yes, both Dynamo and us had certain moments, but I did not see anything serious.
During the flash interview I was asked if Dynamo seemed heavy to me. Why should it be heavy? Only Buschan, Mikhavko and Popov played with Hoffenheim from today's starting lineup. They are all fresh, why should they be tired?
It is very good that Dynamo now have such an opportunity to rotate. I wish both Dynamo and Shakhtar to take their points in European cups, but it is very hard for them. We went to those two games against Betis in the qualification of the Conference League, and we felt how difficult it is. And if there's no squad depth at all.
