Head coach of Shakhtar women’s team Roman Zaiev about the victory over Dynamo and the key moment of the match
– To be honest, I did not expect this result. The main task was to take three points to continue competing for medals. We are pleasantly surprised by the result. I congratulate the team on such a victory!
– Were the penalty and send-off of the opponent’s player at the start the deciding factors?
– Maybe! This factor affected the further situation, because Dynamo gave up a little, and this, in turn, allowed us to play in a more relaxed manner.
– Did you understand that Shakhtar would not give the victory away after three goals in the first half?
– Yes. I understood that it would be a victory for us based on how the game turned out in the first half.
– Is it nice to defeat the major opponents on their own field?
– I look at this victory from the perspective of importance of the three points, the quality of the organization of the game and the dominance on the field. Of course, it is always nice to win a victory, including over Dynamo.
– Did you make today’s substitutions taking into account the match against Kolos?
– I always try to give practice to those players who have less of it. Today we already achieved a result, so we gave the girls a taste of game and a taste of victory.
