The head coach of Lviv’s Karpaty Vladislav Lupashko explained his team’s defeat by Kovalyvskiy Kolos (1:2) in today’s match of the 29th round of the Ukrainian championship.
Vladislav Lupashko“It’s hard to accept such a result. I think that based on the game, we didn’t deserve to lose, but we also did not deserve to win. The quality was not the best. Considering the number of losses before the match and during it, I believe the quality of play was decent, given all the problems.
Conditionally speaking, take away three central defenders from Dynamo, Yarmolenko… Today we also didn’t have Ocheretko playing. During the game, take away the main inside and winger, who asked for substitutions. I think this is all eight players, hence the different style of play.
The problem is not that those who played didn’t perform their job well, but the problem is that many played under unusual conditions and positions. Considering the changes we had, today we couldn’t demand what we usually ask for in ball development. Since we had to make large adjustments,” — Lupashko’s words are cited by the official website of Karpaty.
