– When you already found out publicly that you and Yana Surkis are a couple, from that moment the “son-in-law” went away?
– The team started calling me that even earlier.
And when people found out about it, it was for me, to be honest… This moment and the game with “Minay” – from that moment on, people not only started calling me “son-in-law”, but I got so much hatred from people… I think it’s an unfair assessment of football experts.
I remember how some experts responded about me in the double and now how their opinion has changed. And I understand that this is only because they found out that my wife is the daughter of Igor Surkis.
I read this hate after the game with “Minay” and exactly two weeks later I stopped reading the comments, the Internet. I can read if someone from my family or friends shows me that there is some funny post where you can even laugh or even constructive criticism. But if it is some drunkard who wrote 2 words – there is no time. It’s not that you don’t want to spend your emotions and strength on it.
People think that [Ігор Михайлович казав, кого треба ставити в стартовий склад]. You are a football person and you understand how it all happens in Dynamo. It’s fine if they are ordinary people, but in our country such statements are allowed by those who are watched by thousands of people across Ukraine. When I saw this, the media space in Ukraine simply died for me.
– How did Yana help you?
– It was a huge support. After Mynayu, she communicated with me every day, she even said that it was her fault so that I would not take it upon myself. She said that if someone else had made a mistake, then people would be happy that the team won 4:1, but here it is an information drive for people, all the public will be exposed. It brought us very close then, because I don’t know if I would have been able to cope without her, – said Bilovar.
