Ukrainian midfielder of “Liepaja” Andriy Korobenko provided a detailed description of today’s opponent of “Dynamo” in the Europa League — RFS.

“The team has its advantages. You can highlight the organized defense and the ability to press well, but all of this works more at the level of the Latvian league. If the Rīga team closes up, they may have some chances, as the team knows how to capitalize on counterattacks.
In autumn and winter, RFS lost two key players: key powerful forward Diamande (11 goals in the season) tore his cruciate ligaments. Center-back Balodis moved to “St. Johnstone.”
Key players: left center-back — Slovenian Lipucek — has a decent first pass. Finnish midfielder Marhiev loves to play around with the ball, knows how to initiate attacks. He is reportedly already signed by “Aris.” Also liked is the technical winger Georgian Odisharia. The left-footed insider Ikaunieks was recognized as the best player in Latvia last year (24 matches, 16 goals in the current season).
The formation with three central defenders is quite uncomfortable for opponents. Although these players themselves are quite slow. I believe that against the same “Ajax” (1:0) the pitch helped by about 80 percent — the ball was bouncing to the level not even of knees, but of chests. It was impossible to play normal football.
After the draw, I immediately said that “Dynamo” should calmly beat RFS, and I am not changing my opinion now,” quotes Korobenko the Telegram channel “TaToTake.”
