Europa League Group E has become more tense after Dynamo Kyiv defeat, admits Yuri Semin
In the after math of Dynamo Kyiv’s 1-0 defeat to Besiktas JK, Dynamo head coach, Yuri Semin, has lamented his side’s performance as they failed to score a goal against the Black Eagles at İnönü Stadium.
In a closely contested UEFA Europa League group stage game, none of the two sides come up with a goal till halftime. The home team managed to score the only goal of the match in the second period under the heavy home support. Dynamo failed to find an equalizer.
Semin was disappointed with the result and admitted that the White-blues need to win the remaining group stage matches in order to book a place in later rounds of the Europa League.
Dynamo suffered their first Europa League defeat of the campaign after claiming back-to-back draws against Stoke City and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Maccabi-Tel-Aviv-FC-c39828. As things stand, they are at the second spot on the group table.
Things are looking extremely nervy for the Ukrainian outfit as they are left with only two group stage games to play but Semin is confident that Dynamo can turn the table around.
“It was an incredibly difficult match. But, I think it was very interesting for the audience. Perhaps we did not push them offensively but in the second half we completely dominated the pitch but still could not find an equalizer. Perhaps today was not our
day. This defeat has now complicated the situation in our group, but we'll fight.” The Russian Cup winner was quoted as saying.
He added: “I want to congratulate Besiktas. They had incredible support from their fans and they played better defensively.”Semin concluded.
The former Lokomotiv Moscow manager revealed that the Ukrainian Premier League runners-up need to alter the situation and insisted that they deserved more out of the game.
Speaking on the absence of their midfielder, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Oleh-Husyev-c28411, Semin revealed that he did not field the Ukrainian national as he had a high temperature before the European encounter.
Semin went on to reveal his decision to play fit-again Dynamo goalkeeper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Oleksandr-Shovkovskiy-c28450. The former Dynamo Moscow manager revealed that he carefully monitored the physical condition of the Ukrainian Cup winner before deciding to field him against
the Super Lig club.
