Ihor SURKIS: “Players owe our supporters”

- I haven’t caught up from the defeat against Chelsea yet. It’s good we’ve won today. We must score, use our chances.

- What’s the main reason for the failure in home game against Chelsea?
­- It was a horrible game. We looked like people, who played football for the first time in their lives. I knew our chances weren’t really good, but we had to demonstrate our character and will to win. Dynamo don’t have a right to lose by such a great margin.

- Malmö fought against Chelsea, Slavia fought against Sevilla…

- Sure, if you reach this stage you must fight. If we lost, but players left the field bleeding, I would have said they did their best. But it seems they decided to oppose Chelsea in terms of skillfulness.

- Do you consider the resignation of Khatskevych?

- So far I don’t. I hope players and coaches will make proper conclusions.

- Sarri has praised Shepelev and Tsyhankov…

- I won’t praise anyone. This is the failure for the whole team.

- Only Tsyhankov came up to journalists after the game against Chelsea…

- I guess players are ashamed. They must be in better mood now, so you can ask them this question.

- What do you think of this euro cups season in general?

- It was a certain experience. But even though it’s not shameful to lose against such teams as Chelsea, we had no right to be flattened in front of the full stadium in Kyiv. I’d like to thank our supporters for not booing the team. Players owe them. I don’t think we’ll see the full house at the stadium in the nearest future.

- Why don’t Brazilian newcomers play?

- I guess players, who take the field at the moment, are in better conditions. That’s the only conclusion I can make.

- Did you like the way Sidcley performed on the left wing today?

- I think he was one of the best players on the field.
