Ihor Surkis: “We must use our chances”

- What do you think of this match?

- It was quite tough. Olimpik are orderly team. We know Vicente Gomez, who used to work with us. This coach knows what he wants. I realized that this game wouldn’t be easy after the difficult match in Malmo.

When a team controls the situation and creates chances, it must score. Olimpik had only one opportunity before the break and they used it.

- Dynamo aim to win the UPL and Ukrainian Cup. Are such centre backs as Shabanov and Kadar good enough for this goal?

- It’s up to coaching staff to decide. They tell me which positions need to be enforced. As for centre backs, we also have Popov, who’ll rejoin the team on Monday, and Burda, who’s currently injured.

This already makes 4 centre backs. Besides, Mykhailychenko counts on young defender Syrota, who was in Malmo. Coaches see great potential in him.

Everyone makes mistakes. For example, Ramos scored for Real Madrid yesterday, but then made a mistake and his team conceded. We shouldn’t talk about players’ level after every mistake.

- What do you think of the Euro-2020 drawing for Ukraine?

- We won’t be whipping boys. Ukraine totally can get out of the group. We can compete even against Netherlands.

- As for the game against Malmo…

- I can’t explain what happened. We looked decently in the first half, but after the break… I would have liked such game if Dynamo didn’t participate in it.
