The editorial team of TuttoJuve.com contacted the CEO of Dynamo Kiev by phone exclusively and with a ten-year past in Milan, Prayer Chokhonelilize, to talk in depth about the challenge Wednesday night and beyond:
Compared to the first leg, what are the feelings of the game?
“Juventus is always Juventus, our young players like in the first leg will have the opportunity to gain more experience against these great champions. They will try to fight us to chase first place, but we would like to obtain a favorable result to feed ours. hopes of being able to go to the Europa League. It would be very important for our club, Lucescu is doing an immense job “.
Are you sorry that you have already been eliminated at this stage of the competition?
“We knew from the beginning that we had ended up in a group with two top-level clubs, so we tried to do our best even though we already knew the reality. Ours are talented youngsters, some of them world champions with the Ukrainian team. U20 It would be good to be able to qualify for the Champions League again next year. “
What happened in the double game with Barcelona? If a bitter disappointment came at home, at the Camp Nou the result was very liar.
“It happened that we openly faced one of the best teams in Europe, without disfiguring at all. In Barcelona, we were even able to win it. What seems incredible to me is how the Dynamo was affected by the ‘Covid-19’, in The Two challenges have decimated us and many of our best young players like Supryaga, Mykolenko, Shaparenko ”.
So, will there also be many absent in Turin due to “Covid-19”?
“No, since the swabs performed are all negative. The problem is actually another: those who have been in isolation have returned to training in recent days, unfortunately not all are in the right shape. But do not worry, there is other guys willing to be able to honor the match against Juve in the best possible way. Among other things, I can tell you that we will arrive in Turin around 6 pm today. “
I used to ask you about the sensations, so what is the challenge?

And on Wednesday he will also see Andrea Pirlo, whom he knows very, very well.
“Of course, already in the first leg I had the opportunity to talk to him. Andrea is very ambitious, because he wants to change football with his ideas. I always define him as an intellectual of the ball, little by little he puts his great experience at the service of their champions. ” he won throughout his career. It only takes a little time, Benevento’s draw is just a setback. Previously, Juventus tried to win individually while now I see a more collective game. And some players have already improved. , look at Álvaro Morata as decisive ”.
What wish do you want to do to Andrea?
“The wish is to win all the trophies in Italy, in the sign of Allegri who had won the championship, the Italian Cup and the Italian Super Cup. I believe in Andrea, that is why I am convinced that he will be able to bring the coveted Champions League to Turin even more so in the history of this club. If he succeeds, I will celebrate it personally with him. “
In the first leg I remember the great disappointment I had expressed in the absence of Cristiano Ronaldo. Will you be happy to find him as an opponent?
“Our guys are very excited about the idea. They have already faced Messi, now they will be facing those who have won the Champions League and the Ballon d’Or five times.”
Let’s reveal a background: did Bushchan manage to get a photo with his idol Buffon?
“Absolutely yes, he did not think he had managed to make his dream come true. At the end of the game we met him in the locker room, Buffon was a true gentleman, friendly and very kind to Heorhiy. But it must be said that he is part of Italian culture, never I’ve seen bad behavior or a handshake avoided at the end of the game. “
