Mladen Bartulovic: "I am very grateful to the guys for their attitude"

Zorya Luhansk coach Mladen Bartulrvic on the difficult victory over Vorskla:


-Good afternoon, everyone. I am always glad to return to Poltava. I congratulate my team on the victory! They deserved it. Yes, it was a nervous victory, but we worked hard to achieve a winning result. I am very grateful to the guys for their attitude. They really wanted to win today.


-Today, after you started playing on the power play, for some reason, a lot of things didn't work out for Zorya...

-Before the red card, we played better and had better chances. After the opponent had a player sent off, there was a period when we came to our senses. But all this is purely psychology. Somewhere, we relaxed. The 15-20 minutes were very bad. We have already talked to the team about this in the locker room. We will analyze it.


-In some moments, Zorya was not very confident in defense.

-It's a matter of concentration, as well as a good game of the opponents. "Vorskla is a very good team. We don't play with amateurs. Football is a game in which everyone has and will have moments.


-Will Vladyslav Vakula return to the field soon?

-Yesterday he felt pain in his knee. Bila Tserkva also has problems. The situation on the flanks was difficult. Plus, there were a lot of players on yellow cards.
