“The coach of “Veres” spoke about the draw with “Alexandria””, — write: sport.ua
“If we sum up the number of moments created by us today, then I am not satisfied with the result. But the second half was difficult for us. Therefore, the feelings are mixed.
I thanked the team. We definitely did not deserve to lose. But everything could be in this game. It appeared to be a very nervous end of the match, we felt that we could not fully control the game. Therefore, a draw with one of the leaders of the championship is not bad. It could have been better, but they could have missed it.
If we talk about the final minutes of the match, you always count on reinforcements. And today he was not there. If earlier we strengthened the team’s game, today we only added nervousness. And in such games it is important to spend the last minutes very confidently. Today, the guys on whom the game was based did not wait for serious support from those who came as a substitute.
None of the players who came out in the second half got into the rhythm of the game. I understand the fans expecting a lot from Samuel Nongo. He has certain qualities for which we took him. But it takes time. You need to be patient.
Today we played our final home game of the year. Many worked on high pressing. We always want to press a lot. Before the break, we were doing better. During the break, there were substitutions in Alexandria, they just strengthened the game, increased the intensity of the opponent’s attacks. We were ready for it. But this team shows quality football. They create a lot of problems after the standards – we felt it too. Therefore, they could not work with the ball better. But not all at once.
Was there any underestimation of our team by the opponent? I didn’t notice that. They saw that we did not lose eight matches and were also preparing for us.
I think it was a good game today and the fans liked it.
Reinforcement in winter? For us, this is the number one task. In the summer, we significantly rejuvenated the composition. What we have now is already starting to work. If we can strengthen one or two positions, we will only become stronger. But we can also lose players. There are footballers who already deserve attention from other clubs.”
