“Forward of the national team of Ukraine commented on the victory over Azerbaijan in the selection for the World Cup”, – WRITE: Sport.ua
– Why was the match so difficult? What surprised the opponent?
– When you play against national teams, there are no light rivals. All are set up, all are given to the maximum. Yes, they missed this goal in the locker room somewhere, and he shook us a little, but it is good that it all ended. The main thing is 3 points.
-The opponent scored almost from a single moment in the 1st half. They went out to the 2nd half with a certain experience, or was it anyway?
– No, we were tuned to the fact that we need to score, we need to dominate, load their defenders, play faster so that they are tired and we find our chances to score a goal.
– Today the rival played in three central defender, two of them have always been near you. How difficult did you resist them?
– I do not know, there were moments, somewhere I could not realize them. But I think it is good if they are concentrated on me – it means that we have free space somewhere, and some other player can implement the majority on the football field.
– What about plans? Now rest, and in the following matches what is the mood?
– We see our situation in the group – we need to win. Now everyone will go to clubs. I hope nothing will happen to anyone during this period, and we will be in combat readiness for the next matches.
