Head coach of Dynamo Alexander Khatskevich told about the preparation of Dynamo for the match against AEK and the tasks of his team.
On the eve of the return match of the 1/16 finals of the Europa League, the coach of Dynamo Alexander Khatskevich answered journalists' questions.
- As you know, there were injuries in Gonzalez, Shaparenko and Garmash, and Mbokani and Pivarich also had health problems. What is their condition?.
- Garmash, Gonzalez and Shaparenko suffered minor damage, so they already work in the general group. Pivarich has already started training, but his level of readiness so far does not allow to play. As for Mbokani, recent medical tests have shown that he can not work at full load, so 2-3 weeks will be dealt with under an individual program.
- AEK lost two key players. Will this affect the strength of the team and somehow affect the tasks facing Dynamo? There is no feeling of relaxation?.
- What kind of relaxation can be? Before us is the task to go to the next stage, regardless of the state of affairs of the opponent. On the personnel problems of AEK let his trainer worry.
- How ready is it to strengthen Dynamo Zambrano, and will he be able to play against AEK?.
- As soon as Zambrano is fully ready - he will play. Not yet ready, so his participation in the match against AEK is out of the question.
- You saw AEK in the match against Olympiakos, played against him in Athens. Has your opinion changed about him? And how has the Dynamo changed after two official matches?.
- As for our team, I'm happy with the motor activity. In the match against Olympique, we ran 117 kilometers, although earlier this figure did not exceed 112. But the quality must be improved. And about AEKe my opinion has not changed - the team acts in a familiar manner.
- Dynamo has a lot of cards ... Was there a conversation on this topic?.
- I do not see the point in it..
Only Gonzalez had a warning for disagreeing with the referee. All the rest are game. Guys all understand, once again they do not need to say anything. We play not rude, but tough. And then everything depends on the arbitrator.
