Vorskla beat Chernomorets and advanced to the quarterfinal of the Ukrainian Cup.
"I was expecting a hard game;. In the first half, we studied each other more tactically, no one ventured, they wanted to play reliably. In the second half, we raised our aggressiveness. We had a great situation when, unfortunately, Shtogrin did not score. And the next minute we missed such a strange goal.. And everything has changed. A few minutes later - penalty, second goal. It was a heavy psychological blow.. It’s good that our young players showed their character, didn’t give up and returned to the game.. It was a good blow to Grachev's head ", - Chervenkov quotes the official website of Chernomorets.
"In the end, we strengthened our attack, showed character, showed that we do not want to lose. But when you don't score goals, the result is non-positive.. I can say that in this game we gave a chance to young football players, and they showed their capabilities, their face. Our policy is to give young promising football players a chance.. So there are positive conclusions.. With the cup it's all over. We will focus on the championship.
On Sunday, we have a very serious game against Dawn ".
"Psychological pit? Most importantly, they did not lower their hands and held their heads high. But it’s not so easy, because there are young football players in the locker room who are just starting to play serious football.. They need support, trust and, of course, game practice. They got it today. If they work properly, they will grow professionally.. Our team is promising, it works and develops ".
