Oleh BLOKHIN: “I realized that team which scores first would win” (+ video)

- First of all I’m not satisfied with the state of the turf. It didn’t let players demonstrate their best qualities. After the starting whistle both sides played primitive football with a lot of scrimmage for about 20 minutes. I realized that team which scores first would win. It should be also mentioned that Husiev’s injury had a strong impact upon our players. They were depressed after the first half. Second goal we conceded was the result of mistake. That happens. We tried to change the situation for better and had some chances.

 -What kind of injury has Oleh Husiev suffered?

- Actually I’m not a doctor to comment upon that, but as I’ve said it has had a negative impact upon the team.

- How can you estimate your chances for Premiership?

- We are still to face FC Metalist Kharkiv and FC Shakhtar Donetsk in Kyiv and we must earn points.

- Don’t you regret letting Denys Boiko perform for Dnipro?

- Why should I regret? You’d better ask goalkeeper coach Mykhailo Mykhailov about that.

- What can you say about refereeing?

- I guess in such matches refereeing must be of higher level. That’s my personal point of view.

- Dynamo have conceded four goals in two matches. Does it mean that Vida isn’t an equal replacement for Khacheridi?

- We use those players we have. If we lose another centre back we’ll have no replacement for him. The same can be said about left and right back.

- Do you agree that you team played worse than Dnipro?

- We did what we could, struggled till the end, but as I’ve mentioned, such turf doesn’t let teams demonstrate their best play. Both sides have performers with good technical skills…
