Oleksandr KUCHER: “I wanted more moments and more aggression in the attack”

In the match of the 16th round of the First League, Niva Ternopil met with Chornomorets. The Odesa club won a difficult victory with a score of 1:0. The result of the match was summed up by the head coach of “Chornomorets” Oleksandr Kucher.

“What we agreed on, the boys fulfilled. They became in the middle block, as we wanted. We understood that the opponent has very fast football players in front and there will be long passes, there will be throws, it will be necessary to control the depth. And we managed to do that in the first half. Of course, what we scored was very good, but we still wanted to create more in attack, more moments, more aggression, ahead. In the second half, it was a little better ahead, but somewhere they already paid attention to the result. In the last minutes, they got a little stuck somewhere, they already started in a low block, but they played more confidently. There were also moments, and they punched well. Such a fighting game came out. I think the fans liked her.

We understand that we need to improve our attacking game. They used to play as three defenders, now they have already switched to four. And, of course, there is a slightly different specificity of the game in attack. We are working on it now. Of course, we need to improve our game ahead,” Oleksandr Kucher said.
