Igor Surkis, president: It admits of no doubt that we shouldn’t relax. Football is an unpredictable game. I’m sure these teams are quite ambitious. Besides if our rival is Ireland, we have to consider a long and exhausting flight to this country. It’s good that we play the second leg at home.
Footballers and coaches of Dynamo team realize that their main goal is to advance to a group stage of the UEFA Champions League. Our young team has to gain experience on the international level. This year we signed contracts with several good football players. Hope it will improve our team’s results.
Oleksandr Shovkovskyy, goalkeeper:
There is no reason for me personally which of these two teams will be our rival. I haven’t seen thair games. We have to demonstrate a good football, that’s for sure. As for the possible long flight to Ireland, I think it isn’t so dangerous as it may seem.
Andriy Nesmachnyy, defender: To my mind the Estonian team looks a little bit stronger then the Irish one. On the other hand all teams are practically on the same level at this stage. Anyway we have no right to underestimate our rivals. We should press towards the best result.
Pape Diakhaté, defender:
I know nothing about these football teams. That is why it doesn’t matter for me who we are going to play with. Both of these teams can be defeated if we show our football.
