— We understood that it would not be possible to defend against 'Dynamo' the entire game. Therefore, we tried to meet them on their half of the field. And, fortunately, we succeeded. We played against 'Dynamo' — against a very strong rival. And, of course, they would have their moments. Fortunately, we managed to withstand their pressure. I cannot say there was a specific plan for the midfield players. The main thing was for the entire team to play compactly.

Any victory over 'Dynamo' is pleasant. But that’s already history. We are preparing for the next game. What happened in the locker room after the final whistle? We calmly celebrated. I say again — this is already history. And in football, you cannot live in the past, only in the present. We are already preparing for the next game, — said Oleksandr.
