AEK Man Head coach Manolo Jimenez commented on a draw with Dynamo (0: 0) and the departure of his team from the Europa League.

- Have you changed your mind about the fact that football does not always win the strongest? And what did you tell the players in the locker room?.

- I congratulate the Dynamo! But, indeed, not always the one who works more, passes on. As in Kiev, and in Athens, AEK was stronger and demonstrated the best game. But when Dynamo took advantage of his opportunity in Greece, and we did not use ours in Kiev, I said that I'm proud of the players. We must already think about the next game in the championship.

- How do you assess Chigrinsky's form and why he did not play in the first match?.

- This is only my decision, I do not comment on it.

- How to evaluate the refereeing today?.

- UEFA referees are fair and do not influence the outcome. In Athens, we were lucky in this plan a little less. In Kiev, everything was fine.

- Did the weather affect the result?.

- Not the best scenario - to play in such conditions, snow, cold. But this does not justify the result. As in the first, and in the second match, my team demonstrated a good game.

- Three months later the final of the Champions League will take place in Kiev. What do you think about Kiev, as the host city, and also about the stadium?.

- I hope that in three months it will not snow (laughs). Everything else was pleasant, everything is good.
