Serhiy REBROV: “Late in the game we had four forwards”

- We’ve lost important points. I’d like to congratulate Zirka. They’ve used their opportunities and won deservedly. It was difficult to create chances on this field. I don’t want to blame anyone. It’s our common defeat.

- Did you feel it was impossible to enforce the attack?

- We tried to. We had two strikers. Players, who made substitute appearances, also did their best to enforce the team. I guess we should have used more long balls on this kind of pitch.

- Why did you decide to use two forwards only after the break?

- Why do you think Yarmolenko is a halfback, for example? What about Derlis Gonzalez? Why don’t you think we use three strikers. Late in the game we had even four forwards.

- Both goals are Rudko’s fault as it was his corner. What can you say about goalkeeper’s play?

- In some episodes our goalkeeper made mistakes, but the whole team has lost. First of all I’ve lost. We’ll analyze and discuss this game.

- Didn’t you underestimate Zirka?

- We never do that. We lost many points in the first part of the season when specialists were saying we were the much-fancied side. Zirka control the ball pretty well and have good combinations. They’ve picked the only proper tactics: long balls to the tall and strong forward.

- Is it a pleasure to play when there’s full house at the stadium?

- It is, but it’s not a pleasure to play on such a turf. It’s not okay when home side works on the field throughout a week and then plays official games there. There must be some regulations. Still I’m not saying this is the reason for our defeat.
