The coach sharply criticized the actions of his players
Head coach Minaya Zeljko Ljubenovic summed up the results of the meeting with Veres (1:3) in the 27th round of the UPL.
“Congratulations to Veres on her victory. It was a good game from Rivne. And we did not look like an equal opponent to them. They completely outplayed us and deservedly won.”
“We only played until we scored a goal in the first half. After that everything fell apart. What we agreed on in the locker room, the players did not implement at all. Everyone played their own game. We returned to the level that the team had before my arrival.”
“Veres made 25 shots towards the goal. And we played terribly. I don’t know what the players are thinking about. We were scared again. That’s how it was in the match against Obolon, and that’s how it was now. When we had a chance to win, we didn’t take advantage of it again.”
“I don’t give up. We will fight to the end. But now not everything depends on us. We won’t achieve anything with a game like this. Regarding the penalty, I don’t consider it a foul. The ball hit my hand. After that the game was over.”
“Second half – I lost my voice! We have one less player because the player is lying on the field. I shout – kick the ball out! And they are in the minority running to score! Messi and Ronaldo for me too! And an attack into our goal and a goal.”
Minaj is at the bottom of the UPL standings. In the next round, Lyubenovich’s team will meet Vorskla on May 11.
