Vladislav Dubinchak. Photo — Yu. Yuryiev— I’m very glad that we won. It was actually a very tough game, we are still not used to the hot weather. Today, the main goal was to win before the important games in the semi-finals of the Ukrainian Cup and against “Shakhtar”.
— Tell us about the interesting free kick from which Andriy Yarmolenko scored, and you became the author of the assist.
— This is what the coach asked for — to play the free kick exactly like that. He showed us this play during a theoretical class, and we managed to execute it in the game, so Andriy Yarmolenko celebrated it with Oleksandr Shovkovskyi.
— The weather will become hotter, so it will be even harder to play?
— It’s a matter of getting used to it. One or two games at that temperature — and you get used to it. It’s just a little unusual by contrast after it was recently cold.
— Easter is coming soon, how do you celebrate this holiday?
— We will go to church as a family.
— What do you expect from the match of the Ukrainian Cup against “Bukovyna”, which surprisingly reached the semi-finals?
— It doesn’t matter where the opponent is from. I think everyone has seen how in the German Bundesliga a team from the second league reached the finals. If “Bukovyna” has reached this stage, it means they deserve it. We will be focusing solely on victory and reaching the finals.
