On the eve of the match against Dawn in the championship of Ukraine, Vitaly Koltsov talked to the club press service Olimpik.

- Congratulations on the birth of your son! Preparing for the next round on the wave of positive?.

- Thanks a lot for the wishes. In normal mode, preparing for the game with Zorya. I trained a week, played a game with Dynamo. Now we will systematically analyze errors and we will prepare for the match in the championship..

- Have you already felt sleepless nights on yourself?.

- Yes, slowly I start to feel it on myself. But never mind, children are joy.

- How did the team fill the pause in the championship? What was the focus on?.

- Most on tactics. In these two months, we devoted a lot of time to tactics; we worked on how the team should act on the football field.. Plus, I repeat, we sparred and now we are purposefully preparing for the game..

- What is the main conclusion can be made on the basis of the sparring with Dynamo?.

- We haven’t analyzed the game yet, but I think we had some moments, we just couldn’t realize them. If they had scored, then another account would have been.

- Ahead of the finish segment of the first part of the championship. What result in these three matches will allow you to go on a break in a good mood?.

- In each game we will tune exclusively to win. I would like in a good mood to go on a break. The main thing is to win every match, but it will still be difficult to do it, because we are expected by worthy opponents in all three games..

- What can you say about the upcoming rival - Zara?.

- Dawn is a very good team, which is famous for its counterattacking game. They always have fairly fast players on the flanks, but in general they have a good fighting team. It's always hard to play with luganchan.

- Wards of Yuri Vernidub after a series of failures won two games in a row. Can we say that the team is out of the crisis?.

- I think that two victories in a row raised their level of self-confidence to them a little and they will want to continue their series of victories, but we will make every effort to interrupt this series and not let them get victory. After all, we did not win as long, our team really wants to win.

- Last season in Kiev, the rivals gave a super-productive draw (3: 3), in the first round match they didn’t score goals at all. The upcoming match will be more like which of these two matches?.

- It's hard to even imagine. When we played a scoring draw, different teams were. This season, both in Olimpik and Dawn, the compositions have changed significantly.. Maybe because of this was a goalless result in the first round. We weren't played much at the beginning of the season, perhaps because of this, and the excitement was. Nobody wanted to lose, they played more from defense that we, that Zarya.

- Who in the Luhansk team bears the greatest threat?.

- This is Gromov, Karavayev and Khomchenovsky. These three football players are the shock power of the Dawn. It is through them that the whole game is built..

- the results of the 2018 football year are not far off. Who do you think is the best player in the Ukrainian championship in the past year?.

- I think it's Tyson.

Despite the fact that he missed a whole month, he plays the whole season at a high level, especially the game with Manchester City showed. He played better than anyone, despite the fact that Shakhtar lost.

- And who, in your opinion, was the main discovery of the year?.

- Probably, Shaparenko. Although no, I think that the Swede. Because he consistently performs and scores in the Carpathians. Thanks to this, he was honored to be called to the national team.
