Sports Director of the Lviv Rukh Vladimir Lapitsky exclusively for Football. ua commented on the position of the club regarding the issue of the end of the season in the First League.
" We were among the six clubs that voted in favor of the replay. Our team is preparing to resume the championship, we are training, we agreed on sparring with Dynamo and Shakhtar. If we didn’t want to finish the game, our players would still be in quarantine "
“All clubs now have a few days to think and offer their options: what ways to play. There is a regulation that must be observed. The regulations do not have such a position as playoffs, mini-tournaments. There is an executive committee of PFL, which will say the final word. We are upset as a club, because we felt from the players the desire and strength to play the championship "
The functionary also noted that Rukh is a supporter of the sporting principle, and not behind the scenes battles.
“We don’t want to go to the UPL in such a way when the championship is completed ahead of schedule and it was at that moment that we were in first place.
We want to prove everything according to the sporting principle, since we have opportunities for this. On the other hand, I understand that, unfortunately, not all clubs have the opportunity to play this season. For example, Carpathian region, where the region has the worst statistics on coronavirus. And all this greatly complicates the task of making one right decision "
" Not yet ready to say for sure. But there is an executive committee and there is a regulation "
