Dynamo central defender Vladyslav Zakharchenko shared his thoughts after the victory over Kudrivka at Obolon Arena.
- Dynamo won but conceded a goal. How well did the defense perform?
- I think it’s probably impossible to play 100% perfectly in defense because opponents also know how to play football and try to create something. At least once per game they will succeed in something.
- In the first half Kudrivka had only one shot, the score was 2:0 in favor of Dynamo, two goals were disallowed and there was a one-on-one opportunity for Guerrero… Was the score fair?
- Of course we could have scored more but luck also plays a big role in football. Sometimes you’re luckier, sometimes less. That’s part of the game.
- Next up is Fiorentina in the Conference League. How will the team prepare for such an important match?
- It’s truly an important match. It’s also important that we won today. We need to regain confidence in ourselves, the feeling that we can beat any team.
- And how do you individually regain confidence after a difficult run?
- Simply by performing well in training and matches. When everything works out and you do everything well, confidence naturally returns.
