Dynamo – Shakhtar – 1:1. Post-match press conference
Yuriy SEMIN, Dynamo head coach:
- To my mind, the game was too nervous. The players failed to cope with the mental pressure and didn’t show their best play. We had good chances to double the lead, though. Meantime, our opponents had only one chance and they took it.
- Did substitutes Ghioane and Cernat reinforce the line-up?
- No, they didn’t and that was one of the reasons we failed to break the course of the game. Same situation we had in the match with Valencia. So, we must prepare more thoroughly for the next match.
- Could you please comment on the episode when Shakhtar scored an equaliser?
- Betão found himself in a difficult situation as Shakhtar player was a bit faster than he. The same situation was when we scored a goal against the visitors.
- What’s the situation with Artem Kravets?
- I think Artem is likely to miss the rest of the season.
- What tactics are you going to choose for the second match in Donetsk – attacking or counter-attacking?
- I am not ready to give answer to this question yet. First of all, we’ll have to assess the players’ physical condition.
