Midfielder of Kryvyi Rih "Kryvbas" Yuriy Vakulko - about the control match at the Slovenian meeting against the Swiss "Young Boys" - 2:2.
- What are your emotions after this sparring?
- Emotions are good, we played against a very strong team. In addition, in such an atmosphere, many fans came to the game, there were also Ukrainian fans with our flags, we are grateful to them for their support. Glory to Ukraine! Regarding the game: 2:2 is a fair result. Both teams had their moments.
- You scored in the 5th minute. Remember that episode...
- I don't remember anymore, everything is like a fog (smiles). They pressed the opponent, took the ball away - I scored already from close range - an ordinary goal.
- How do you like the support of Ukrainian fans?
- It was very nice to see Ukrainian fans: many children, people even from Kryvyi Rih. It is very unifying, we play football for the fans.
- Did it feel like you were playing against a team at the level of the Champions League?
- I wouldn't say that it was very difficult. "Young Boys" is a strong team, very well prepared physically. But "Kryvbas" not so long ago already played against such clubs as "Ferencvaros" and "Viktoria" Pilsen at training sessions. Therefore, there is already some experience and certain expectations of what the game will be like. Our team played well: they pressed, confidently held the ball, attacked.
