Olexandr Rybka: It was very difficult to compete with Czechs in the air

Print

- I think the players did well today and nobody can blame them for the lack of devotion. Maybe we were just out of luck because we had several chances before the deadlock was broken but we failed to use them. This was the crucial moment of the game.

- Do you think our team could equalize after the first goal?

- Of course we could. There were also chances when the score was 2:0 but the ball wouldn't go in. Perhaps we were short of class.

- You let both goals in after set pieces...

- Czechs are tall and it is difficult to compete with them in the air. Both goals from set pieces are just a coincidence.

- Did the coach try to change something during the break?

- No, he just encouraged the team and said that we needed only victory. We had to go out and grab it in the second half. But it didn't happen.
