Zorya got the seventh win in a row this season today, defeating Ingulets
Head coach Zari Patrick van Leeuwen commented on the victory over Ingulets (2:0) in the 27th round of the UPL. The coach emphasized that his team has serious potential for further achievements.
“In my opinion, not our best game, because the beginning was difficult. The guys are worried because they see the standings of the team, when success is getting closer and it is difficult to cope with emotions. We had chances both for realization and for playing through the flank. We succeeded, but much later than it was possible.
“In general, many chances created by our players were not realized. But in general, we won – so this is a good result.”
“Guerrero? We’ll take a look at his health. Now it is too early to say what exactly happened, whether it was an injury or just a spasm. We will observe and make decisions. As for Shakhov, it is also unknown whether he will play on Wednesday.”
“Goals for the season? It’s hard to talk about it, because if you look at the composition of the team at the beginning, when we played against Universitati and now, then half of the players are no longer part of our club. In the second round, some changes were also made precisely in the composition, because there were injuries, and such an unfortunate situation with Oleg Danchenko.
“I told the guys that if you want to show your ambitions and good results in the team, the UPL is the best opportunity for all of you. Everything depends on you. This setup was because most of the team were rookies and young players. And when we started to gain momentum, I said that we have the potential for further achievements.”
“We practice from game to game. And today’s game is no exception and was very important for us. It was important to win and then look at the next matches.”
Zorya is third in the UPL with 61 points. Patrick van Leeuwen’s team will play against Shakhtar on May 24 in the next match.
