Vitaliy Mykolenko: “I apologize to Yuriy Pankiv for every goal”

By the way, Vitaliy has three goals to his name this season – all against FC Oleksandria.

- Well, it turns out Oleksandria are my favourite team (laughing). When I scored my first goal against them last October, goalkeeper Yuriy Pankiv said: “This is your first goal against me”. So now I apologize to him for every goal (smiling). This time I did it too.

- Your celebration resembled fishing. What does it mean?

- I really like fishing. Mykola Shaparenko, Danyil Sukhoruchko and I agreed to celebrate this way.

- How do you feel after such a big win?

- Of course the atmosphere is good after every win.

- Were all three penalties fair?

- We have VAR system and if the situation is unclear, referee checks it. I haven’t watched those episodes yet, but if referee awarded penalties, he was sure they were fair.

- There were many bookings and one red card today. Could you avoid any of them?

- I don’t want to discuss refereeing. If referee booked players, I guess he had reasons. I think Oleksandria player was sent off fairly.

- You’re in for away game against FC Zoria Luhansk. What do you expect of this match?

- Our task is to finish second, so every game is like a final now. We must leave our opponents behind.
