During the break in the match with Dynamo, the coach had to calm his players down
Coach Veresa Oleg Shandruk After the match with Dynamo (1:2) in the second round of the UPL, he complained that his players lacked courage from the first minutes of the match.
“In the first half, we came out onto the field and showed too much respect for the opponent. Accordingly, we did not control the game completely. Both in defense and in working with the ball. At half-time, we had to calm the team down. Because, unfortunately, we did not show the necessary courage. Why? It takes time to talk and understand each other.”
“A team is a sensitive organism. There was probably some nervousness. Not everyone. But three or four players are enough for a team not to be able to show itself.”
“In the second half, we started playing differently because we had nothing to lose. And I am grateful to the team for the second half. In fact, we have a strong team. The only question is that we ourselves believe in it. In the second half, we believed in it. I think the fans felt it.”
“Dynamo is in great shape now. Even despite the rotation. Playing in European competitions shows this level. So today we had to rely not only on luck, but also show courage from the first seconds. We got this courage later. But, let’s be honest, Dynamo doesn’t have enough chances.”
“Why did Semyon Vovchenko play on the left? The reason is Evgeniy Morozko’s injury. Our newcomer Luan made his debut today, he had ten minutes. We let him play so that he could adapt as quickly as possible. Because he had little time to adapt.”
“As for other substitutions, Mikhail Protasevich suffered a chest contusion. He felt unwell and the doctor recommended this substitution. Marko Mrvaljevic lost a lot of the fight. And Dmitry Klets couldn’t keep up with the pace of the game in the defensive phase. This is a kind of express analysis on the spot. I would also like to thank Andrey Kozhukhar. Thanks to his play, the intrigue remained until the end of the match.”
Nikolay Shaparenko opened the scoring after a pass from Vladislav Kabaev. At the end of the first half, Shaparenko recorded an assist for Vitaly Buyalsky. Veres managed to win back one goal after the break thanks to the efforts of Vladislav Sharai, who took advantage of a mistake by goalkeeper Ruslan Neshcheret.
Veres has one point after two rounds. In the next match, Rivne will host Kryvbas on August 18.
