The head coach of Zaporizhzhya Metalurh Sergiy Kovalets commented on his team’s victory in the Ukrainian First League match against FC YUKSA (3:1).
" YUKSA has qualified specialists. There is a play pressure on one side and on the other.. We realized that a great match is checking us out. It’s good that the Gravs withstood the pressure, and then carried out good attacks, worked in a disciplined manner. I realized that this victory is emotional. We need to calmly analyze everything now. The road to Zaporizhzhya is such that you will have to worry about it. Well, we are suffering from sick people, cerebrovascular disease and gravel.
We hung out in front of our gri. Our passion, spirit, those we wanted to overcome were very important. And, of course, there was a team game, both in defense and in attack. With a score of 2:0, YUKSA added three points. Lots of flank passes, good moves, high speeds. Ale we realized that it was important not to miss the other ball, and to score the third one in a counterattack. What actually happened.
I want to say that the field is good. It’s nice to play here again, in Buchi. And we realized that YUKSA, being good gravers, would be presinging, and we would train in training. It’s so good that counter-attack came into us, and we carried out attacks. If only we had been kidnapped, it would have been worse.
We believe in ourselves that we can save our place in Pershaya Liza. We sing in this. The head comes out of the bag, give in 100% and the result will be. “Love your head, and fight for the ball,” the PFL press service quotes Kovaltsya.
