Kiev. Ukraine. Ukraine Gate – March 11, 2021 – Sport
“We reached the 1/8 finals of the Europa League. This is an important stage. It is necessary to continue in the same spirit. Our opponent came from the Champions League, defeated Brugge and Shakhtar in the Ukrainian championship. Lucescu is a coach with a lot of experience, he continues to work for the result. Dynamo is played by young footballers who are showing themselves well this season and are already playing for the Ukrainian national team. Now we need to focus on the match. Our players work a lot. I think that with this level of performers we have to believe in ourselves.
It is possible that Dynamo fans will be in the stands, but this is a positive moment for both teams. We meet a strong and difficult opponent. Players control the course of the match on the field. They have a young striker, an active goalkeeper and captain who plays in the center of the field, and Tsygankov, who plays on the right flank. Let’s see if he will take part in the fight. Our task is to impose our style of play on the opponent, despite the fact that Dynamo performs well in European Cups and knows how to win. We have a difficult match ahead of us, ”Emery stressed.
Villarreal was defeated before the match with Dynamo in the Europa League, which will take place today at 19:55.
