To your attention part of the exclusive material from the official match program to the game 25 UPL 2024 \ 2025 Kryvbas - Zorya, when our questions were answered by the defender of red and white Yvan Dibango.
- Your relatives in Nigeria can watch matches Kryvbas in ? How can they be able to cheer for you?
- Of course, my family supports me. My father, despite his health, always finds time to cheer for me, he watches our matches. And does not miss the opportunity to quarrel me for a failed game when we lose (smiles).
- What gifts or souvenirs from Kryvbas u bring home on vacation?
- usually I give my family different T-shirts Kryvbas.
- young players from our Academy continue to join the main team. How do you evaluate their game?
- my sincere greetings to the boys, because for them it is a big step in a professional career - to get to the main team. Of course, they are still young players, but each of them has great potential. Both Shevchenko and Kamensky have some fear and tension, but they develop very quickly and improve their skills. I can't stand out for one of these guys at the moment, because they have not had much play time on the field and have not yet fully revealed their potential. But, I hope the next season, young guys who joined the main team will now be ready for any trials.
- Remember your career at this stage. What was the young Ivan?
- I remember very well the beginning of my journey in adult football, because it was allegedly yesterday. It was in Cameroun and, I was 17 years old. At that time, I was already standing out among the Academy's boys and was able to play at a more professional level. I played Wnger in my debut match because there were no players. During the first ten minutes, only one decisive pass, that's all. I ran to the right, left, as if it were scared (laughs). Therefore, after 30 minutes, the coach replaced me with another player, because I was exhausted, could not breathe normally. After that I was already released on the field.
But there were also good news: the coach left me in the team for the whole season. I trained very passionately, watched the play of adult players and listened to every advice from them. One day, he even peeked to study an individual player's training plan, who played the same position as I was, because he was a very strong football player. A year later, the club changed the coaching headquarters that focused on young football players, so I was finally able to play.
- You are a favorite leader player Parafan club Kryvbas Is it nice for you to be aware that you inspire young guys?
- I am pleased to realize that with my play I can inspire young pets, especially such strong spirit as Vlad. I will continue to give them my sincere smile, every time going to the field, for the sake of their emotions, I will fight the whole body and soul. I want to wish my friend Nikitiuk's good health and tell him that he is capable of everything in this life. I pray to one day he gets back on his feet to reach a bright successful future.
