Dynamo expects a serious confrontation with AEK
Dynamo Kyiv head coach Mircea Lucescu commented on the upcoming match of his team in the group stage of the Europa League against AEK. The Romanian mentor stressed that his wards are preparing for a serious match.
“This is a very important match. After the defeat in Istanbul, we need to win in order to continue the fight for access to the spring part of the Euroseason, ”said the Dynamo coach.
“The game does not promise to be easy, it will be a difficult match for us. The opponent has at his disposal absolutely all of his players, and we have many players out of order. I have to repeat every time that we are not based anywhere and every three days we move to a new place. But we will continue to fight for points and advancement from the group.”
“I think that AEK Larnaca is a very good team with foreign players. In fact, they now have only one Cypriot player – Nikos Englezu. I don’t know if he will play against us. As for the rest of the players, legionnaires, many of them have a great career behind them, they played in strong championships. AEK played very good matches in the current European season, in the Champions League qualification and in the Europa League. In particular, they knocked out Partizan in the Champions League, drew twice with Midtjylland in the Champions League. They also had a good match against Rennes.”
“As for our team, we arrived here from Lviv. The road here took about seven hours. I hope that tomorrow they will cheer for us here, that Ukrainians who live in Krakow will come to the game, as well as Polish football fans who wish to watch the Europa League match.”
“AEK has good players in midfield – the Spaniards, the Portuguese, in particular Oyer Sanjurjo and Gus Ledes. In defense – Serb Tomovic and Bosnian Milicevic, who have played in the Italian championship for a long time. Also the Spaniard Mikkel Gonzalez, who played in La Liga for a long time, having played many games at a high level. The rest of the players are also high level. I watched the matches of AEK against Dnepr-1. I understand that we need to prepare for a very difficult match.”
The Dynamo-AEK match will take place on Thursday, September 15. The game starts at 22:00 Kyiv time. The fight will take place in Krakow at the Jozef Pilsudski Stadium in Krakow. The meeting will be served by the Dane Jacob Kehlet.
