- Good evening, I'm glad to see you.. I myself was recently in your role. By European standards, it’s normal when a coach works at a club and speaks on television.. I now understand that a coach should always communicate with journalists, regardless of whether they have a positive or negative result.. Before the match, after the match and even during the break. In any condition, because we play for the fans, and you notify the public about these events..

I said before the game that we were opposed by the team, which included 11 national teams. Yes, it can be a difficult psychological moment in Dynamo, but these are high-level players. As for the match, I think it was a success.. We had our own game plan.. In the first half, we had to play defensively, compactly and in an organized manner, with the expectation of counterattacks. In the second half, we wanted to apply pressure for 45 minutes.. Everything turned out in this regard, I am pleased with the guys. They are completely laid out and gave themselves. The fans probably liked the match.

- What was discussed with Oleg Luzhny after the match?.

- Vitaly Kvartsyany introduced me to Oleg Romanovich. If I'm not mistaken, it was the year 1999. I was the captain of the youth team, and he is the captain of the national team.. I myself am from Lutsk, and Romanovich played in Lutsk, he is a graduate of Kvartsyany. He introduced us. In Kiev, we are neighbors, sometimes overlap, discuss some issues. I congratulated him on his victory, this is normal. He fights for his team, I defend my team. I am now the head coach, I must do everything to protect my guys. We play on different sides of the barricades, each defends his interests..

- How do you coaching debut?.

- I am pleased, this is a big responsibility. In life, I love important moments, big challenges. I never hid, I like to answer for my game, for my words and for my deeds. The same thing here - if I took this job, I will give myself completely. I do not know how everything will be in the future, but I believe that we will succeed and we will develop a little bit. I will give myself all the work, as well as the entire coaching staff, which I gathered. We have young and ambitious people.. I like it, I want to develop further. Therefore, we have gathered such a team.

- You had a very emotional match. How much do your players already understand your requirements?.

- I was not a super talented player. Brazilians at Shakhtar called me Robocop. I work, I worked and achieved success with this. I've always had high competition. I am grateful that practically my entire career up to 38 years old played in such a team as Shakhtar.. The guys know that I am an emotional, great professional in this regard, and I demand, by my example, to show that they are professionals.. I gave them two days off and said: guys, there will be a good workout on the third day, so take a rest for two days, and at the same time take time for a restorative workout.. I will see how they. We are one team, I have to trust them.. I want to be honest with them and in front of you.

- Why did you choose Ruslana Rotana as an assistant?.

- We have known Ruslan a long time ago.. We played together, very often there were such clashes - he is for his team, I am for my. I like him as a person. You know, he is a very educated, intelligent, literate guy who wants to develop.

He is a great professional both on and off the field.. He is a big family man, he has goals. Similarly, our physical training coach, goalkeeper coach. They are all ambitious and young guys.. We want to grow together. I typed Ruslana and offered him this option. I didn’t want an experienced assistant from the old school. I needed a fresh look and ideas, modern football. I hope we will grow together as a coaching staff..
