FC Dynamo Kyiv head coach Mircea Lucescu has commented upon the 3:3 away draw against AEK Larnaca FC.
- We deserved more. We conceded due to silly mistakes. I want to mention that AEK are very good and fit team. They were more aggressive and fast. On the other hand, we created more scoring opportunities, but wasted a number of those.
We still have an important game against Fenerbahce as we must prove we’re the best team of the group. We haven’t succeeded, but played good games.
I congratulate AEK on qualification for the Conference League. I hope they’ll keep this up. They have decent experienced and skillful players.
Tomorrow we go back to Ukraine. We’ll be on the road the whole day. On Sunday we’ll play domestic league game after which we’ll go to Krakow again to face Fenerbahce. It’s very tough to spend 10 hours on the road several times a week. Players lacked fitness today, but generally they looked pretty good. Unfortunately, we haven’t got out of the group. I think we deserved it. Anyway, congratulations to AEK.
