Olexandr SHOVKOVSKYI: “We’ve written good history page”

- I congratulate all supporters on qualification for the Champions League next stage. I guess it was our worst game of the season, but we’ve reached our goal. We’ve written good history page, but we must look forward.

- What did you feel playing behind closed doors?

­- It’s really weird. You feel like the game is a friendly.

- What did you think of in the locker room?

- I thought: “Thanks God, it’s over and we’ve got out of the group!”

- What’s wrong with Yarmolenko?

- He’s at doping test, so I haven’t asked him yet. They say he’s hurt a muscle, but I don’t know how serious that is.

- What can you say about Dynamo progress in euro cups?

- The team has its style. We’re definitely making headway. Last season we reached the Europa League quarterfinal, won the domestic league and national cup. Now we’ve qualified for the Champions League knock-out stage. I see the progress, but there’s always something to work on. We know where we should move and what we should do for that.

- Which Champions League match was the most difficult?

- The last game is always the most memorable. The match in Porto was also very important.

- This year is successful for Ukraine national team and Dynamo. What do these achievements mean to you?

- We’ve made a serious step forward, but there’s much work ahead. We must do our best to play better and better, win trophies and set new records.

- Which team would you like to face in knock-out stage?

- No matter which team we face we must take the field and play.
