Obolon forward Denis Ustimenko commented on his team’s defeat in the UPL match against Metalist 1925 (1:3).

" Often during training we play together with Nesterenko, so our mutual relationship is already well established. We feel like we are the only one on the field, and I think that this itself played a key role in the episode with the goal.

Emotional holy day? How long ago did a person close to me die, my uncle?. It was not easy to get ready mentally for the match, so I want to dedicate this goal to you.

We all wanted to forget as soon as possible about those that we hadn’t scored for a long time, we worked hard on completing. I respect that the first stage was good for our victor: we created moments. I especially had three goals, but only realized one. Yakbi had more chances and could have won the match.

They played badly for us, but to be fair, we definitely didn’t deserve to win. This is my special thought,” said Ustimenka, the club’s press service.
