Do I believe "Alexandria" has a chance to advance? You know, the main thing is not to bury the "city dwellers" prematurely. Their squad has enough players who can make a difference in the return match. If they could just score an early goal, then the intrigue would return immediately.
I agree, the "city dwellers" still lack confidence in their abilities. But it will surely appear after their first victory at an official level,” said Pervak.
