The Rivne club rose to 13th place in the UPL
Acting head coach Veres Oleg Shandruk commented on the crushing victory over Obolon (3:0) in the 23rd round of the UPL.
“Today we have slightly modified the tactical arrangement of the triangle of midfielders in the center of the field – with an eye to the fact that in this formation it will be easier for us to put pressure on the opponent.”
“We also wanted to play more aggressively in the half-flanks, to use both Valery Kucherov and Andrey Kuharuk there. They both love and know how to attack. We started from this, knowing that Marko Mrvaljevic could not play.”
“Denis Yanakov’s start was absolutely predictable for our coaching staff. We see the work in training. And they even talked about this at the meeting – we have an equal team and everyone is ready to start. Compared to the previous match, we made six changes to the starting line-up and we didn’t even question these decisions.”
“The team trained positively all week. And it was noticeable that some of the players were truly hungry for the game. They took advantage of this chance today. Including Denis Yanakov.”
“Dmitry Shastal’s entry into the forefront of the attack is not an experiment. He played center forward in his time. Marko Mrvaljevic was not there today, but we know very well the capabilities of Dmitry Shastal. It was a strategic move.”
“Regarding the replacement of Evgeniy Pasta. Rotation of the knee joint is always unpleasant. An examination is required. It could be something serious, but we hope for the best.”
“Today it’s a sin for us to complain about implementation. The team has yet to score three goals this year. I understand that we had more chances. They hit the post twice. Canceled goal. I am glad that in such important and important matches the team creates and scores. Today we won a very important three points.”
“If we implement the matches that have already been played, we could count on points in the matches with Krivbass and Koloss. We had good parts of the game. Unfortunately, we couldn’t take the points. But there was a victory over Chernomorets away. Therefore, somewhere we must be happy with what we have today. The victory is a positive in preparation for the next game.”
The Rivne club got its second victory in the last three rounds and rose to 13th position, moving Obolon lower. In the next match, Shandruk’s team will play away against LNZ on April 15.
