The central figure of the event was the White-Blues striker Dieumerci Mbokani.
Congolese players answered various fans’ questions.
- What is your attitude to women in football and female journalists?
- I watch female football very rarely.
As for women in journalism, I think they can achieve not less than men in this area.
- Jeremain Lens has stated that he wants to play in one of European top leagues. What about you?
- Dynamo are a good team. The White-Blues participate in euro cups regularly. Maybe some day I’ll join one of European top clubs, but my contract with Kyivans will be valid for 4 more years and I’ll do my best for this club.
- When did you start playing football?
- When I was ten.
- Do you study Russian or Ukrainian language?
- I attend Russian language classes. I already understand some words and phrases. I suppose that in sine months I’ll be able to speak Russian.
- What can you say about Oleh Blokhin?
- I think he is a great coach. There are a lot of new players in our team. We need time to achieve mutual understanding.
- Do you like Ukrainian cuisine?
- Unfortunately haven’t enjoyed all peculiarities of Ukrainian cuisine yet. Maybe I’ll do it today as our team will have dinner at the restaurant.
- Why do you head the ball in rarely playing for Dynamo?
- There’s no big difference for me how to score. In my last game I hit the post with a header. In the next match I’ll try to score again.
- What is more important for you: your personal achievements or success of the team?
- Of course success of my team is more important.
- How many goals must you score to be satisfied with yourself?
- I want to score a lot. Still I work for the benefit of my team first of all.
- What is your favorite street in Kyiv and why?
- It’s Khreshchatyk. It is located in the heart of the city. Besides I live not far from it.
Finally I want to state that it’s a pleasure to meet fans. With your support we’ll overcome all difficulties!
After that Dieumerci held autograph signing session and attended Dynamo museum.
