Andriy Yarmolenko and Denis Kuzik. Photo — fckryvbas.com— Practically the entire 1st half, "Kryvbas" tried to disrupt "Dynamo"'s attacks.
— Yes, we analyzed the opponent, were prepared for them, so we tried to do everything to play our football, attack, break into attacks.
Believe me, "Dynamo" created almost nothing in the first half. Just that one moment, the cross — the ball passed through the entire penalty area. I don’t know how, we will watch, analyze what we did wrong, address our mistakes and move on. Nothing serious.
— There was a lot of unnecessary fighting on the field, emotions were running high.
— Yes, the mood for this game was very combative, not to lose the fight on the field, so there were a lot of tackles, shouts. I think that maybe it was a bit excessive, it disrupts the tempo of the game. But these are emotions, you play football for the emotions.
— "Kryvbas" boldly sought its chances in attack, especially through some long-range shots. Was that maybe the instruction from the coaching staff?
— No. I think each player decided based on the situation — to shoot or to pass. There wasn’t any direct instruction like that.
— When "Dynamo" was left with fewer players, it seemed that it became a bit easier for "Kryvbas".
— I wouldn’t say that. They just scored the 2nd goal very quickly — they shot across the entire field, and it turned out that it was very easy for them to score. I think this may have hit psychologically. There was an advantage, but there were no really serious moments — that didn’t happen.
