Recently well-known Ukrainian striker Sergey Chuychenko spoke about what he expects from the match between Spanish "Real Sociedad" and Kyiv "Dynamo" in the 6th round of the main stage of the Europa League, which will take place today in San Sebastián.
Sergey Chuychenko“In my opinion, the team of Oleksandr Shovkovskyi will play defensively regardless of whether they play with three central defenders or five defenders. The main focus will be on reliability at the back, and only then on finding the shortest paths to the hosts' goal.
The only concern is whether the Kyiv players will have the strength to withstand the high tempo that the Spanish club's players will offer throughout 90 minutes. Because in previous matches in the Europa League, the Dynamo team did not succeed in this.
However, the fact that, unlike the hosts, the tournament situation does not put pressure on Kyiv should help them get rid of stiffness and play for their pleasure. Although the mood should be maximum. Only under such circumstances is there a chance to stop “Real Sociedad”, which is currently on the rise,” Chuychenko said.
