Victoria’s coach praises her opponent for his good speed component and ability to play intense football
Head coach Victoria (Pilsen) Miroslav Koubek commented on tomorrow’s confrontation with the Kyiv Dynamo in the 5th round match Europa League 2024/25.
“We have four more games, including tomorrow. Considering that after this we have three very difficult opponents, then tomorrow’s game is the one we need to focus on. Dynamo Kiev will also be determined to play, because they don’t have a single point in the standings yet, and they want to do something about it.”
“Dynamo is a team that consists of mobile and dynamic players. The speed component of the team is very good. This is due to both the transition to attack and the ability to play intense football. This is a good team. Dynamo’s lack of results in Europe is due to the fact that they faced a very difficult lot. In any case, we should not underestimate them. Dynamo Kiev is and will always be a European brand that has quality.”
“Victoria is the best Czech club in the European Cup season at the moment? This is nice, but I would like to emphasize that this is something that cannot be measured. We play in different competitions. We have six points now, but we have to work to get more. At the moment this is a good starting position for the second half of the league stage.”
“Playing away is always more difficult and we are playing against a quality team. Of course, we know that we also have our qualities, and in this case I think the chances are fifty-fifty.”
“Dynamo [70-х — 80-х] – it was a great era. They have won the European Cup Winners’ Cup twice. They played great football and it was a pleasure to watch.”
The match between Dynamo and Victoria will take place on Thursday, November 28, in Hamburg. The starting whistle at the Volksparkstadion will sound at 19:45 Kyiv time. The match will be officiated by the Portuguese team led by Luis Godinho.
With four defeats and a goal difference of 0:10, Dynamo is the worst team in the general stage of the Europa League. Victoria Pilsen is in 16th position with one win and three draws.
Let us remind you that in the Europa League qualifying this season, Victoria beat another Ukrainian club – Krivbass, scoring two victories (2:1, 1:0). The main forward of the Czech team is the Ghanaian Prince Adu (6 goals + 2 assists, including 2+1 in the League), who managed to score for Krivbass, after which he changed jobs at the end of August.
