Ihor SURKIS: “I’ve seen real football”

- I can’t say I’m disappointed. I’m satisfied as it was a close match. The team had discipline and acted orderly. The battle is on. I enjoyed the game. There was a fight and I’ve seen real football.

- What can you say about formation coaching staff chose?

- Rybalka is one of our leading players. Veloso didn’t take the field. Vida replaced Antunes. I think Domagoj has coped with his duties. We’ve earned one point. It was important not to straggle after the match against Shakhtar. Still we can change things for better in domestic league while Champions League group stage includes only six games. We must move on and gain points.

- They discussed Khacheridi vs Costa duel a lot before the game. How did Dynamo defense look today?

- The whole team played orderly. Khacheridi is one of our key performers. Costa didn’t score today and only that matters. Khacheridi didn’t give him a break.

- Dynamo missed several Champions League seasons. Do you feel you’re back to big game?

- First of all players must feel these emotions. There’s nothing Champions League can be compared with. Besides our domestic league isn’t what it was several years ago. Champions League is great motivation and experience. Today seven Ukrainians were among first eleven. That means a lot.
