President of Dynamo Igor Surkis shared his opinion about the rival for the 3rd round of the Champions League - the Swiss Young Boys.

In the 3rd round of the Champions League qualification Dynamo will meet with Young Boys. According to Igor Surkis, the Kiev club must overcome this stage.

"In this round of qualification, all possible rivals Dynamo, except Nice, were about the same level. If we want to compete in the Champions League, we must set ourselves the task of passing Young Boys and gradually moving forward, "Surkis said..

"Last season, Young Boys took second place in the Swiss Championships, we must respect this team and think about how to best prepare and go to the next round. Our rival is a very good team, but he is able to ".

Also, the president of Kiev noted that the defeat of Shakhtar by Young Boys last season will not affect the mood of players.

"Take revenge for the defeat of the Miner from Young Boys? Nothing like this should not be, we do not intend to take revenge on anyone. We play for the honor of our club, for the fans. Do not look into the past, who, where and who played. We look forward only, we will solve the tasks set, "- said the president of Dynamo.

"The team needs to be set up for the matches, but without creating an additional rush. There was a set of five rivals who could get caught. The lot was determined by Young Boys, we will try to show our best qualities and pass it ".

"Each new season brings new hopes for the conquest of trophies. There's no reason for us to sprinkle our heads with ashes and say that last season was unsuccessful. We had before him two great seasons, in the first of which we played well in the group stage of the Champions League. And in the past performance in the Champions League I would not fail failure. Now the team is again preparing for performances in tournaments, it is waiting for a very tight game schedule, "concluded Surkis.
