In the qualification, we overcame Partizan, played against Rangers in an extremely difficult match. They are now in the Europa League playoffs. Against Salzburg, we had two equal matches, but we lacked execution.
The first match against Lazio was decent in content, but the score 0:3 just broke us. We started with some confidence, but this defeat brought us back to earth.
Additionally, constant travels had an impact. Although I don’t want to use this as an excuse, it was hard — we were almost never home, constantly on the road. Physical fatigue was compounded by the emotional state. When you are far from loved ones, especially knowing that shelling is ongoing in Ukraine, your thoughts involuntarily drift away. All of this together created a difficult picture that affected our game," said Brazhko to GG.Sport.
