Head coach of Luhansk Zarya Viktor Skrypnyk commented on the victory over Shakhtar Donetsk in the central match of the 16th round of the Ukrainian Premier League.

" We understood that the opponents were playing the European Cup match and, perhaps, emotionally they would not be so mentally disposed. But physically, we had the same fights and we know that the second half will always be easier.. I had to endure, which we did. Looking for chances ahead. I'm surprised, of course, that ten of us found this chance, but I want to give a big compliment to the team, which not only followed the installation, but completed the work one hundred percent.

Deleting? I always want to play in the optimal lineup. Of course, you readjust and play more against the ball. It turned out the way it turned out. We are glad that this happened to us. We have not lost to Shakhtar for four matches and are very pleased with the result. Like any victory, it only gives confidence in the work we do.. Beating Shakhtar is already a good achievement, "

Also, the Ukrainian specialist spoke about the early replacement of Kochergin in the 13th minute of the meeting..

" I asked for a replacement, "
