Patrick van Leeuwen: We have reached what we came for - won and went on

Goals shea coach of Kryvyi Rih Kryvbas in Patrick van Leeuwen commented on a visiting victory within the 1 \32 finals of the Cup of Ukraine over FC Kulykiv-Bilka (3:0).

- Mr. how would you rate today's victory overall?

- I think we started very slowly. Long road and lack of energy were signs from the first minutes. However, we remained in the game, if we can say so - in the future we did not give the opponent a single chance. In the break, we made adjustments, and in the second half the pace increased. We scored three goals in 15 minutes. So, in general, this is a good result after a hard trip.

- Can you say that the conversation has significantly affected the team?

- Yes, I want to believe that players begin to understand why you need to decide the fate of the match as soon as possible, especially when playing with a team of another level. And they really quickly fixed everything in the second half. I am pleased that the game went as we wanted. Although I would like it to happen earlier - in the first half. But I'm happy with the result. All is well, we have reached what we came for - won and went on.

- How will you appreciate Bar Lin's debut in the main warehouse today?

- Like the team, the bar started a little slowly, but in the second half scored a goal that added energy to it. Then he scored a fantastic second ball - a powerful blow from afar.

- Artur Mykytyshyn today did not go on the field , although he came with the team . What is the reason?

- Was a slight injury. We acted reasonably and decided not to take risks - so he did not play today.

- Flores made his debut today. Did he already adapt?

- Its adaptation is still ongoing. He still needs to get used to many new things. But this game was useful for him - he got the game minutes and felt what means to be part Kryvbas.

- What are the subsequent team plans?

- Today we go on a long journey back to Kryvyi Rih, rest and start preparing for the next match against Obolon.
