Younes BELHANDA: “Getting ready for the season due to sparrings” (+ VIDEO)

- Younes, what can you say about the game against 1860 München? It seems you’ve done a good job…

- We have, but our key aim was to reach some physical conditions. We also had some tactical tasks.

- Is the head coach satisfied with the way players follow the game plan?

- After Serhiy Rebrov took charge of the team this game system became our peculiarity. It gives positive results, so we try to follow it.

- Yesterday you also had a worthy opponent…

- Benfica defended very well. They opposed us the way the majority of teams do in the Ukrainian Premier League. We lacked space, but still won the game.

- Today midfielders played for about one hour each as Miguel was absent. Is it difficult to perform for more than 45 minutes so far?

- It wasn’t easy, but preseason work started not long ago. It takes some time to recondition, but considering our ambitions we always want to have as much game practice as possible.

- Dynamo are to play seven sparrings at the training camp. Does that gladden you?

- I like that as in such a way we get accustomed to atmosphere of competition and improve our tactical skills.

- You used to feature against EA Guingamp in Ligue 1. What can you say about this team?

- They’ve got new head coach, players and ambitions. They don’t have problems with tactics and physical conditions. We’ll have to do out best to win in France. Special attention should be paid to Claudio Beauvue, who scores a lot.

- Do you follow the AFCON? What can you say about horizons of DR Congo national team Dieumerci Mbokani plays for?

- I watched their second game at the tournament. Unfortunately they didn’t manage to score, but one match is still ahead. They must win to reach the next stage. I think they have enough good performers for that.
