The full-back of the “white and blue” Oleksandr Karavaev shared his expectations from the upcoming confrontation with the Romans.

“We need positive emotions and we are strong enough to compete on two fronts. The fans will help us. There will be a lot of football until May, then we will rest. We have become stronger because we have a good combination of factors: we have a lot of newcomers, but also seniors players want to demonstrate their worth.

Last year, we failed in both the championship of Ukraine and the European Cups. Now every player is highly motivated, everyone wants to demonstrate their qualities. The games against Lazio, Roma and Sociedad are among the ones I’m looking forward to the most. I’ve never met them and I can’t wait to compete with clubs of this level,” Karavaeva was quoted as saying Corriere dello Sport.

As a reminder, the match between Dynamo Kyiv and Lazio will take place today, September 25, at 22:00 Kyiv time. Follow the key developments of this confrontation in a text online broadcast on Football.ua.
