- Ihor, have Benfica turned out to be more serious opponent than you expected?
- First of all we must focus on our play. I think we controlled the game, but lacked the final pass. Besides Benfica goalkeeper saved the team several times. If we scored earlier we would have netted more goals.
- You play as supporting midfielder in 4-1-4-1 formation. Is this the optimal position for you?
- It’s very comfortable for me to be a supporting midfielder, but I can play wherever the head coach tells me to.
- What are you main duties on the pitch?
- I’m supposed to control the game, switch it from one flank to another.
- What can you say about the main squad training process?
- I really like it as we work a lot with the ball. Still doing game exercises we also run a lot.
- What’s easier for you at this stage – tactical of physical exercises?
- At this stage we must have good physical conditions. I think by the end of the training camp we’ll demonstrate good results.
- This is your second training camp with the main squad. Does experience you have make it easier for you? How do you feel working alongside such performers as Yarmolenko, Lens?
- Training camps are always difficult, but I’ve already got accustomed to that and I like training with the team. Everyone supports young players. It’s great to work alongside main squad performers.
