Epicenter midfielder – about the first match with Veres in the playoffs of the Ukrainian championship
Epicenter midfielder Sergey Sten appreciated draw his team in the first Ukrainian Championship playoff match with Veres.
— Is this the most important game in the short history of Epicenter?
– Maybe yes. In terms of the status of the match, this is the most important game for Epicenter.
— How many Veres matches did you watch in preparation for this meeting?
– Some. There is a good platform called Wyscout, there is great information there. Interestingly, our entire team attended the match of the 30th round of the UPL Metalist 1925 – Veres last Saturday. That’s when we saw our opponents play live in the playoff round.
— I think that in the first half you could have won much more than Veres. What was missing to realize such cool moments?
— I agree that we had fantastic moments. I could have scored the second goal, then Kravchuk didn’t score from a killer position. What are we missing? Composure and skill.
— If you compare your game today and the matches in the First League, did you play at your level or better?
“I think we showed our class and played pretty much the way we always do.”
— Many experts with whom we spoke after the final whistle said that they liked Epicenter…
– Nobody believes in us. Epicenter is a First League team and no one knows anything about it. Nobody bet on us, but we came out and showed quality football.
— Did the club’s management set you the task of getting into the Premier League?
– Yes. We can do it. In the first half, you saw how many chances we created. If the score had been 3:0 before the break, we would have already decided a lot in this confrontation.
— Did the substitutions made by Veres’ coaching staff help them save the game?
– Don’t know. We have a lot of injured guys right now. At the end of the season, four of our players are injured, and this is a lot for us.
