Ihor Yermakov: Would the game have been different if it hadn't been for Kemkin's red card? I don't know

The coach of Lviv's Karpaty Ihor Yermakov commented on the home match against Kryvyi Rih's Kryvbas - 1:0 in the 12th round of the UPL.

- Did Karpaty play to keep the score?

- The game was completely under our control. The guys decided to play attacks calmly, the opponent was "low". We didn't see the point in rushing, because at that moment we were winning 1:0. We wanted to pull Kryvbas to us and then look for free space. The opponent sat down very "low" and we needed to pull them out.

- If it weren't for Kemkin's red card, would the game have been different?

- You know, this is probability theory. If we discuss this now, we will enter a different universe. I can't answer this question, because I don't know. I think we would have dictated our terms and won anyway. Even with equal lineups.

- Why does the team look stronger during an injury epidemic than when the personnel situation is better?

– This is life, it happens. When we count on one thing, and then another comes out. Similarly, no one expected Sych to recover for so long. We thought less, but it happened. Again, we work on it every day and it is their responsibility.

- What is the team lacking in the finishing phase?

- Just like you, I want every shot of the players to end in a goal. The more, the better. But while there are certain circumstances, we lack a little ease in these moments.
