Winger of "Polissia", Oleksandr Nazarenko, talked about the crushing defeat against the Serie A representative in the Conference League — "Fiorentina".
Oleksandr Nazarenko— The match against "Fiorentina" was difficult for "Polissia". The opponent converted almost all their chances, while the Zhytomyr side missed their opportunities and paid for it. After the red card, the Italians took the initiative and mostly played on counterattacks, one of which resulted in the third goal.
This is a unique experience for us — to play against the sixth team of Serie A in front of a full stadium with our supporters backing us. Ruslan Rotan emphasized that the main thing is to act boldly and not be afraid of anyone, and thanks to this, the team had some moments, although they were not converted.
Ruslan Petrovych always supports us, even at halftime. He encouraged us, said that everything is fine, and urged us to fight until the end. The players of "Polissia" gave their all on the field, but the result was not in their favor. After the game, they thanked the fans who support the club regardless of the outcome of the matches, — said Nazarenko.
