Konoplya: The quality of Ukrainian Derby remains the same
Shakhtar's defender Yukhym Konoplya speaking about the result of the match against Dynamo Kyiv (1:0).
- We were very motivated for this game. The guys from Dynamo also showed a decent level, they fought well, and I hope that the fans enjoyed the game.
In the first half, Kyiv had moments, but then they got tired because we had more possession of the ball and tried to stick to out plan. I think, the opponent did not have enough strength for the second half.
The quality of Ukrainian Derby remained the same as in previous years. Someone is higher in the table, someone is lower. This is life, you can't stay at the top level all the time. On the Internet they say that Dynamo is in crisis, but still their players showed a decent level. I think that both they and we will fight for the championship until the last day, - said Konoplya during the Football Hub broadcast.
