In the latest episode of the information-analytical program PFL Ukraine, football expert Viktor Dogadaylo spoke about the importance of having experienced players in the first and second leagues, how they influence the youth, and what benefits they bring.
Viktor DogadayloLast weekend, highly experienced Denis Harmash made his debut in the lineup of the second league youth team Metalist 1925. He spent 80 minutes on the pitch, and his team lost to Chaika 0:3.
— The presence of experienced Denis Harmash in the team is a great advantage for the young generation. With players like him, the team begins to develop. But I would like to emphasize that in many teams of the Second league, there are many experienced players who help create a good and competitive team. Knowing Denis Harmash, he always plays with soul and heart, giving his all in every episode and remains an example for the youth, so the most important matches for Metalist 1925 are still ahead.”
The expert also expressed his opinion about the match between Kudrivka and Kremin, where Vasyl Baranov's team looked like a clear favorite.
“The strengths were uneven, but we know that Kremin is also capable of surprises. Klymovskyi is an experienced coach who knows how to develop football players. Kudrivka had nowhere to retreat after the last match when they lost to their competitor Viktoriya; they definitely needed to take all three points. Football is developing in Kudrivka, the stadium has been reconstructed. The club’s president is quite demanding, the fans are demanding, so in this regard, Kudrivka's victory was predictable.”
The main surprise of the final autumn round in the second league was the unexpected defeat of Vylkhivtsi against the outright outsider Real Farmy.
“Yes, the lineup of Vylkhivtsi has enough well-known and qualified footballers. All young teams that are just debuting in the professionals need to build not only a football team but also a complete structure of a football club. Vylkhivtsi needed to play this match, take three points, and then analyze the three previous consecutive defeats. I did not see strong motivation in the team; there was no creativity.”
