The experienced midfielder believes that the Kyiv team needs to play better in defense.
Andriy Yarmolenko believes that his team needs to solve the problem of a large number of defensive mistakes, which lead to the goals conceded.
So, one of the leaders of the Kyiv club responded to the team’s unexpected defeat in the game against Chernomorets in the UPL.
“We expected it to be a difficult game against Chernomorets. We analyzed this opponent, we know that this is a good team, that they play combinational football. So we realized that they will play in this way. Probably, nothing we are in good enough physical condition because on Thursday we played 120 minutes with Aris, plus transfers, it was a long road so we didn’t recover properly so this is the result.
Of course, there were a lot of mistakes on our part, a lot of chances we didn’t convert, and when you don’t score, you concede. But nothing terrible. I think this will be a lesson for us. Moving on, nothing is over, the championship is long. The main thing is to draw the right conclusions both from victories and defeats.
Naturally, emotionally it’s not easy either when you’re on the pitch for 120 minutes of intense, hard play and then another penalty shoot-out. It is not only physical and emotional. Of course, it’s hard to recover, but what can we do? Now we are in a situation where we have to endure. I apologize to our fans for this result, but this is football, and losses happen too. We have to accept them with honor and move on. I repeat, nothing terrible happened, we have to raise our heads and move on, because in four days we have another important game in the European competition.
Now it’s hard to talk about each goal separately, you have to analyze those moments, see who made a mistake. Of course, when you fall short, it’s a mistake. I think the coaching staff will review the situations where we conceded and show us the shortcomings. In the next matches, we must play better in defense, but this applies not only to the defenders, but to all the team players on the football field, because we missed a lot, and we have to concentrate on the team’s game in defense,” Dynamo’s official website quoted Yarmolenko as saying.
