Viktor Skrypnyk: “We were winning, so the emotions surrounding the draw aren’t as positive.”

Viktor Skrypnyk, head coach of Luhansk’s “Zorya,” on the match against “Bukovyna”:

-There are two kinds of draws. When you lose and end up with a draw, and when you win but end up with a tie.

We were winning, so the feelings about the draw aren’t as positive.

We played well in the first half and scored a goal.

Then, we probably wanted to hold onto the lead, which put psychological pressure on us. We didn’t push forward enough to avoid leaving open spaces, and we didn’t create opportunities. In short, we played to the score. We couldn’t hold on.

Still, I’ll give my team credit. This is our third game in a short period. We knew how important it would be to play well here.
