Vikonuvac of Dynamo head coach Igor Kostyuk joined with ZMI representatives ahead of the 5th round match of the main stage of the Conference League against Fiorentini.

At the beginning of the press conference, Kostyuk welcomed the football spirit of International Football Day and spoke about the personnel situation in the team:.

“Denis Popov and captain Vitaly Buyalsky will not be with us, but one of the leaders, Andriy Yarmolenko and Khristian Bilovar, has turned to the secret group.”.

Commenting on their opponent, the coach is supportive that, despite Fiorentini’s place in the table, the Italians are deprived of an even unsafe opponent:.

" In the matches, they gave up, I won’t say what they had to do - they played on equal terms with their opponents. The team, clearly, in my opinion, is undeservedly in the remaining place."

Before he joined Dynamo after recognition, Kostyuk said:.

" The team is not at its best right now, but I’m singing that tomorrow there won’t be anyone on the field.”.

The mentor also assessed the prospects of Liza’s conference:.

“There were a lot of bad luck, but it’s already behind. We will go to the skin match and achieve maximum results. We have a chance to get through to the spring stage, and we will earn everything we can."

Responding to the question about the possibility of victory in Florence, Kostyuk noted:.

" We got ready, Fiorentina is a good team. We have wasted a lot of points, they have the rest of the place, so it will be worth it.

I hope that the events that will be released tomorrow - the start and the rotation - will not be so bad."

Finally, the coach focused on feeding logistical difficulties and supporting Ukrainians behind the border:.

" We play not only for ourselves, but for them. Today the Ukrainian consul Oksana Kalateychuk came to us and said that people would come to support Dynamo. This is symbolic and evocative. We will definitely not be like tomorrow"

Dynamo and Fiorentina will meet in Florence tomorrow. Cob matcha - about 19:45.
