Olexandr KHATSKEVYCH: “The key to success is about effective defense and attack”

- In recent days we worked as we usually do. Today we analyzed the game in Portugal and focused on what was good and bad about our defensive and attacking actions. Basically the team did pretty well in Funchal, but tomorrow we must do much better.

- You let many players miss the game against FC Stal Kamianske…

- The flight from Funchal was really long. Players weren’t ready to take the field both from physical and psychological point of view.

- In recent games Dynamo had problems with switching from defense to attack. What’s the reason?

- First of all it’s about players’ skillfulness. First pass is such football element when player must take a risk.

- How does Pivaric feel? Who’ll take the position of left lateral?

- Pivaric has got concussion and serious wound. As for position of left lateral, Mykolenko acted quite confidently against Stal. Anyway, we’ll decide tomorrow.

- What can help you defeat Maritimo?
- In the recent game against Boavista FC they let a big group of players have rest too. They defend orderly and switch to attack quickly. Maritimo also use set pieces quite effectively. Our key to success is about effective defense and attack.

- Will you practice penalty shootout at the training session?

- We have experienced players, who can take the responsibility if necessary. Anyway, we won’t practice penalties.
