The coach of the Rival team shared his thoughts after the start of the new season in the UPL.

Veres head coach Oleg Shandruk commented on his team’s defeat in the UPL opening round match against Kharkov (0:1).

" New hopes, new confidences. And I believe that this championship will be no less successful than the previous one. Before the match - it is predicted that Kharkiv will beat Volodymyr by ball. They have a qualified team, they perform their tasks. We have our own tasks. And today I am completely pleased with the fact that I got to work in the field. I understand that we are making progress. So, let's cover the rest of the road. Ale everything that does not kill us is to discourage us from being strong. Therefore, I believe that we will only make a difference.

They rushed to the ground last night when the terrible shelling of Kiev by the Russians took place? I think they stuck me in, because I myself was about the fourth morning, having risen from the shelter of the room. I don’t know how I prepared for the game Kharkov. It definitely hit us. Ale I don’t want to joke about the truth in the surroundings. Specka, foldable nothing, but I don’t want to complain.

Daniil Checher is in the supporting zone, and Igor Kharatin is in defense? I appreciate that our idea came to fruition. Otherwise, we beat Chechers in the support zone back in the spring. At this position we are in the grave and in the training camps. Doctors who have received Kai Tsipot from the center of the defense - we have entrusted our services to the well-established Kharatin in this position. And on my thought, it worked,” the club’s press service suggested to Shandruk..
