FC Dynamo Kyiv winger Benjamin Verbic, who had a birthday on the day of the game against FC Mynai, has commented upon the White-Blues’ 2:0 win:
- Of course victory is the best birthday present. We wanted to win to stay on the top of the league table. The second half was hard. Mynai were very determined. We didn’t do very well, but still managed to win.
- How did teammates congratulate you on your birthday?
- They congratulated me before the game and mostly wished good health. As you know, I had some issues. Now we’ll have a long trip to Kyiv and then we’ll start getting ready for the next game.
- What do you think of your performance today?
- There were some good episodes. On the other hand, I could shoot on goal a couple of times, but didn’t. I guess things will bet getter gradually. I did everything I could. I hope that helped the team.
- What do you think of the atmosphere at the stadium?
- It was good, especially in the second half, when fans felt their team could score. In the first half they didn’t have chances. After the break we weren’t focused enough, so Mynai had some opportunities. We mustn’t let that happen again. Veres will do their best to score against us and we must prevent that.
