The first factor. Motivation It is obvious that the departure from the Champions League qualification from Young Boys became a real disappointment for the Ukrainian fans. Now the Dynamo, blood from the nose, you need to go to the group stage of the second most important European club tournament. In principle, for this, Alexander Khatskevich's team has almost everything. After a dry visiting draw, the task to beat the middleweight championship of Portugal remains topical, and the unfulfilled moments in the first meeting surely beat the pride of Kievites. Now before the native fans of Dynamo skirmish obviously will not want, and the fact that the wards of Khatskevich from the starting minutes will begin to load the defense of Maritim to the maximum, there is no doubt. Draw the first match also implies that a possible problem at the Olympic underestimating the opponent, with high probability, will be solved. The presence of the coaching staff of the Kiev club a man like Oleg Luzhny is not intended shapkozakidatelskih sentiment, and Khatskevich language does not turn called liberal coach. However, there is no doubt that the players themselves will be filled with a desire to confidently cross the Portuguese barrier and thereby ensure themselves, at least, the European Cup season.
The second factor. Class Hardly anyone has any doubts that the Dynamo class significantly exceeds the level of the Portuguese middle peasants. Another thing is that in some cases this very class can be leveled by super motivation and an unquenchable thirst for struggle on the part of a less qualified rival. This in the modern history of Kiev (and not only) has already happened. Even without the notorious comparison of the estimated transfer cost of Dynamo and Maritimu players, it is obvious that the Ukrainian club must confidently pass the Pyrenean rival. The presence of such masters as Andrei Yarmolenko, Denis Garmash, Diemerci Mbokani and Domagoi Vida clearly indicates that the favorites of the confrontation are exactly the team of Khatskevich. It's clear that football is not played by names, but by individuals, but often it is highly skilled masters who play the first fiddle in responsible fights.
The third factor. Freshness In the last match with Steel (4: 1), the coaching staff of Kiev exhibited an experimental composition. The leaders of the attacks of the club Yarmolenko, Garmash and Mbokani did not participate in the meeting, but two Artemas - Kravets and Besedin. Also rest was given to the main goalkeeper Maxim Koval, which also has a positive impact on his game. It's no secret that goalkeepers are a separate caste, demanding a special approach, first of all, a moral and psychological. In addition, after a difficult start to the season, some players, like a sip of water in the Gobi Desert, needed a reboot. However, and the Portuguese opponents in this plan have succeeded. In the match with Boavista, the mentor Maritimo also went on experiments, leaving only the defensive line unchanged, taking into account the final minimum victory, coped with his tasks ... And yet there is no doubt that the rested Dynamo leaders will demonstrate their best qualities and help the native club achieve the maximum result. The position requires ... The fourth factor. Native stadium Here, two important aspects immediately come into play. First, the people of Kiev will do everything to please their own fans, who are yearning for international victories. In addition, the departure from Young Boys has not yet completely wiped out of memory, and, as is known, the wedge kicks out. Secondly, on the lawn of NSC Olympic is sure to be radically different from the marshy field in the first match. Of course, in less qualitative fields, the superiority in the classroom is practically reduced to zero, which, in fact, happened in Funchal. But at the Olympic Dynamo will have an indisputable advantage, which is necessary only to translate into the desired result.
The fifth factor. Experience Despite the relative youth of the majority of Dynamo players, they can not be called unarmed youths. Even relatively young Vitaliy Buyalsky, Maxim Koval and Sergei Sidorchuk have a considerable European experience behind them. Yesterday's juniors Victor Tsygankov and Artem Besedin are not newcomers to football. At the same time, in each line, Dynamo players have experienced players. The defense is cemented by Domagoi Vida and Yevgeny Khacheridi, but the latter, because of the disqualification, will help his team unless morally. In the middle line, much in the game of the people of Kiev depends on the conditions of Denis Garmash, and the final attacks are called upon by Andrey Yarmolenko and Diemerci Mbokani. By the way, even in the reserve Khatskevich there is someone to rely on, proof of this was the match with Steel, which was soloed by equally tough fighters Oleg Gusev and Artem Kravets. Do not forget the diligent and useful Nikolai Morozyuk and the unstable, but highly qualified midfielder Derylis Gonzalez! With such a calico, Dynamo should not have problems with clubs of the caliber of Maritimo.
The sixth factor. Psychology Naturally, the results of any team are affected by its performance at the current moment in all tournaments in which it participates. With this, the people of Kiev are doing very well. In the championship at the start of the season, the most important opponent was beaten, and the first place in the standings obviously warms the souls of the fans of white and blue. The only spectacular loss took place in a match with Vorskla (0: 0), but it is unlikely that she hit so hard on the psychological state of football players and coaches. Moreover, in the remaining matches Dynamo consistently cheered their fans a good performance, and to score in the gate of the rivals could almost every player from the clip. Is not every coach dreaming about this? !!.
The seventh factor. Problems in the defense of the opponent The match in Funchal showed clearly that the defense of the owners did not always cope with their duties. Yes, the Portuguese managed to keep their goal intact, but to a greater extent this is not merit Maritima, but rather the wine forwards of Kiev.
As did not score from the advantageous position Mbokani - he knows only himself, and perhaps several shamans from the Congolese tribes. In addition, in a number of episodes, the Dynamo did not succeed in inflicting impact strikes due to the deteriorating quality of the lawn on the Burrayruz Shower. At the same time, it was noticeable that the defenders of the hosts trite did not keep up with the quick midfielder of the Ukrainian club. However, every new match is a new story. Let's hope with a happy ending for Dynamo.
