Yehor Tverdokhlib: We want to achieve a positive result in the next match

Midfielder of Kryvyi Rih Kryvbas Yehor Tverdokhlib - about the home match against SC Poltava - 2:2 in the 11th round of the UPL on UPL TV.

- Yehor, Kryvbas was a little short of the third, decisive goal. The team looked better than the opponent in almost all components, but what can you say about the realization of the chances - was it at the proper level?

- We need to go out and play from the first minutes, and not only in the second half. We have problems with set pieces, we have already lost two matches in a row after such situations, and this is unacceptable. I would like to apologize to the Club's management and fans. After the unsuccessful previous game, we really wanted to rehabilitate, but, unfortunately, we did not succeed. Now we will work on our mistakes and prepare for the next match in order to achieve a positive result.

- At the beginning of the match, the team looked a bit unfocused. What is the reason for this?

- It's hard to say. We were preparing for this match and understood that we needed to play as focused as possible from the first minutes. Why did it happen exactly like this - we will analyze it so as not to repeat such mistakes again.

- In the second half, there was an episode with a penalty: the opponent did not hit the ball, but touched you. How would you comment on that moment?

- Williwald earned a penalty kick. There was a crowd of players in the penalty area, and the opponent hit our player on the leg instead of the ball. In my opinion, it was a clear penalty - and VAR confirmed it.
