Defender of Kryvyi Rih Kryvbas Volodymyr Vilivald spoke about the away victory in the match of the 2nd round of the UPL against Luhansk Zorya - 3:1.
- Volodymyr, it seems that this is exactly the kind of emotional boost and victory that the team lacked?
- Yes, of course! We lacked it. Today, from the first minutes, it was noticeable that we really wanted to win. We ran forward, wanted to score and win. Of course, it was not without luck, but this is part of football.
- Regarding luck: decipher where exactly it was - near your own goal or someone else's?
- Probably near ours. The opponent also had his chances, but our goals are also an indicator of skill.
- How do you, as a defender, change partners on the defensive line quite often? Is it difficult, or are you already used to it?
- Of course, it is not easy in some places. When you play with one partner for a long time in training and in official matches, you understand each other without words. And when it happens that partners change - you need to find a common language again, communicate. Both of our new defenders are foreigners, so there is a certain language barrier, but we are trying to find understanding on the football field.
- Last season, Kryvbas was remembered for its bright, open football. Will the team play the same way this season?
- This is the football we strive for. We need to constantly improve our game, especially in defense, and create more chances. We need to move on, forget previous failures, and live for the next match.
