General Director Zari Sergei Rafailov shared his opinion about the injury of Artem Gromov and communication with the team after the game with Alexandria.
Dawn in the 3rd qualifying round of the Europa League will play with Braga. The first matches of the third qualifying round will be held on August 9, and the return matches on August 16.
"I'll start with the ticket issue. We have 11 thousand 759 seats in the stadium. We exclude 1700 seats from the total sale, in view of the fact that this is the home and guest sector of active fans. No matter how many, for example, would come to the guest sector of Braga, it will be allocated only for them, "Rafailov said quoting the official website of Zarya.
"We have 10,000 tickets left. We take 500 more tickets from here, which we give out to special services, children, football players and members of their families. Really on sale there were 9,500 tickets. For the first day of selling tickets, about one thousand. This refers to the match of the Europa League plus two games of the domestic championship. Quickly they diverge or not, yet difficult to say ".
"I understand the fans. Some wait. Some people did not like that we sell tickets to Braga only in a package. We want our fans to go to our matches. As in the European League, both in the championship and the Cup of Ukraine. Although we are playing with Desna, even with Dynamo, at least with Braga. Therefore, it was decided to sell tickets with a package of ".
"There are people who go to all our matches and for them this position is most comfortable. We hope that those who see our matches in the Europa League will come to the fights of the Ukrainian championship in the future ".
"To expect that on the last day we will start urgently selling tickets only to Braga, definitely not worth it. Our position is unequivocal - to sell tickets only in a package together with two games of the championship. I would like the fans to be sympathetic. Similarly, tickets will be sold in the event of the release of Dawn in the playoffs ".
"Trauma of Artem Gromov?" He has an ankle ligament tear. Treatment and recovery, according to doctors, suggests a period of three to four weeks. Now he is being treated. Naturally, the condition of his form will be violated and he will need some period to recover. Artem is a fighter. But you need to take into account the fact that during the month of Artem's composition will not be. He is not included in the application for the third qualifying round of the Europa League. We hope that in the coming days we will successfully conclude negotiations with one of the players who is involved in the position of the striker and he will join us ".
"Serious conversation after the game with Alexandria? It's wrong to say that only I am unhappy and that everything in the club is only because I like or does not like Rafailov. This is not true. In this case, I think everyone is unhappy. And the president, the coaching staff, and the fans are dissatisfied with the attitude of the players to the game in the last two matches. Talking with coaches, I tried to find out why this happened. Maybe they did not finish? But, it seems, everything is fine. The same training process. I looked at the physical state of the players, based on the analytics provided to me. It is also normal. I was told what kind of setup was on the game. Footballers confirmed this. Why did not the players execute it? I will repeat, but I will say that, most likely, because of the comfort zone. Football players do not understand that it will not always be so good ".
