Tverdokhlib’s hat-trick in the central match of the 15th round allowed Krivbass to defeat Polesie and overtake it in the table
Head coach Krivbassa Yuri Vernidub commented on the home victory over Polesie (3:1) in the central match of the 15th round Ukrainian Premier League.
“Very positive emotions. The game was perfect for us. But the match is very difficult, against a powerful opponent, to whom we lost in the Ukrainian Cup in Zhitomir. Today we won at home. I think it’s about the game. But the beginning was very sad for us. I will note three 100% moments at our gates. But I want to thank Vladimir Makhankov, who pulled off these blows. But then everything fell into place. We started to carry out some good attacks. We scored a good goal and could have scored more in the first half.”
“Both teams looked good after the break. The game was quite intense and interesting. But we were much better, so we scored two more goals and won. Congratulations to Krivbass, our guys, fans and the city of Krivoy Rog on this success.”
“Congratulations to Yegor Tverdokhlib on his hat-trick. A very good performance from him. We can say that he has definitely joined the team. He looks good. We can say that he is in his best shape. I wish him only progress, training, and he will succeed, one hundred percent.”
“Why work, train if you don’t have a goal? There is always a goal. I would really like to take at least third place again. That championship was not easy, and this one is even harder. Look how many applicants are for the highest places. But we are ready for this fight. In addition to the first three, there are also Carpathians, Polesie, and Veres looks powerful from game to game. It will be very difficult, but we must go towards our goal.”
“Then it will be even more interesting, there are 15 rounds ahead. Let’s see, perhaps we will have some good transfers. There may be losses, but that’s normal, that’s football. The players are developing and they also want to play in European clubs and earn much more.”
Let us remind you that in today’s match the Krivoy Rog team opened the scoring in the 11th minute, Egor Tverdokhlib scored. Polesie did little to threaten the home team’s goal in the first half. After the break, Imad Ashur’s team moved forward with great strength. In the 63rd minute, Alexey Gutsulyak equalized the score with a shot off the post. Krivbass took the lead again 10 minutes later, Tverdokhlib scored the second goal in a counterattack. And finally, Egor scored a hat-trick, hitting the goal after a corner kick.
Krivbass beat Polesie with 25 points and rose to fourth place in the UPL. In the next match, the Vernidub team will play away against Chernomorets on December 7.
