The manager of Luhansk Zorya summarized the match with LNZ:
-I didn't like the first half. We missed the children's first half. There was a lot of fighting, yellow cards. We made substitutions because of all this.
We had chances to do something ahead, but we didn't use them.
Then a standard, two of our players failed to deal with a simple situation and another goal.
Now we will have a break, and then we are going to Turkey, where we will work and correct our mistakes.
-Zorya under your leadership is an attacking team that creates problems for every opponent. Today something didn't work out. Did the absence of your captain and scorer Pylyp Budkivskyi have an impact?
-The team captain is always missing. This is football. Budkivsky is Budkivsky. He scored a lot of goals. But we played eleven against eleven and the opponent also had problems with the lineup.
You always want to play with the best possible lineup.
When a team like LNZ takes the lead, they sit down in their own half of the field, so there is little room for attacks. Nevertheless, we created several chances. Unfortunately, we did not use them.
-Are you satisfied with the way Nemanja Andusic played as a striker and did you consider other options?
-Andusic doesn't need space. He can come up with something when the ball is in his feet. We wanted to play faster on the edges.
Salenko, who played in the second half, is a very talented guy. But the boys still lack stability. They need time.
In general, I can say that we are not satisfied with the place in the table that we have now.
