Famous manager and expert Vyacheslav ZakhoVaylo shared his impressions of the 11th round match of the Ukrainian championship between Donetsk’s Shakhtar and Kyiv’s Dynamo (3:1).
Vyacheslav ZakhoVaylo«We are all used to this match always causing a huge stir. But with each passing year, interest in this confrontation noticeably decreases. The failures of our two giants in European competitions do not go unnoticed — they reflect on the emotions of the fans.
Congratulations to „Shakhtar“ on the victory. A victory is a victory, no disputes there.
There were plenty of emotions — without them, football loses its flavor. The best in this match was the referee: he did not succumb to provocations and, in essence, became the best on the field in this match.
Ukrainian football is criticized by everyone who feels like it. Deservedly? I think so.
Recently, „Dynamo“ signed a contract with a Polish specialist responsible for set-pieces. This is already a step forward. It would be nice to also invite a coach for ball retrieval and defensive positioning... But okay, that’s already a joke.
Honestly, analyzing today’s game of „Dynamo,“ there is little joy. But everything has its reasons. Love is not chosen — I remain faithful and hopeful to watch the next match.
Foul on Shola? There was VAR. In Europe, such are not given. We can argue, but all referees in Europe received new instructions. Regarding Shovkovskyi’s comments on this subject, that from Sasha, it’s emotions. I understand him. As an example, in the last game in the Czech Republic, the penalty situation was even more convincing. But we were all explained why the referee and VAR made such a decision. The referees received new instructions. We need to get used to it.
Wishing everyone well. Glory to Ukraine!», wrote ZakhoVaylo on his social network page Facebook.
