Former Dynamo striker Viktor Khlus commented on the confident victory of the Kiev team in the second leg of the Champions League playoff round against Belgium’s Gent.
“First of all, we have to congratulate the Dynamo on reaching the group stage of the Champions League. We were looking forward to it. Finally, the fans will be able to enjoy quality European football again. wrong game, there is nothing to do with strong opponents.
After the away game, the Kiev players already had one foot in the group stage, and at home it was only necessary to confirm a successful start. There was confidence that such a frankly weak opponent could hardly be reincarnated in a week and create problems by beating the Dynamo with the required score. We will not underestimate the merits of our team, who took advantage of a successful situation and beat the Belgians in two games. But looking at the weak “Gent” yesterday, it occurred to me that we were playing with “Minaj” or with “Lvov”. This is the level of the Belgians now. And this is our luck. It is not for nothing that they even occupy the “correct” position in their championship: 15th place.
With a comfortable marker after the first mast, “Dynamo” decided to change their tactic at home, to play not from defense, but from a position of strength. We started actively, which immediately paid off – they scored a goal. With a total score of 3: 1, it seemed that the game had gone formal. But the second half left unpleasant questions. Why did the Dynamo create so many scoring chances in their goal? Relaxed. If the “Gent” had scored everything, and this is 3-4 goals, then the entrance to the group would have been blurred. It’s good that the low skill level of the Ghent players didn’t allow them to turn everything into goals. There are big claims for the Dynamo defense. However, “Dynamo” paired with “Gent” was way over the top, so he continued.
I was pleased with the good implementation: everything they created, they scored. What bothered was the defensive play in the second half. And once again I emphasize, in the context of such a weak “Gent” it is not allowed to allow the opponent to be the master in the penalty area and sometimes in the goalkeeper’s court. It’s good that Buschan got everything out, he can be called the best player of the match.
To look good in the group stage, you first have to think about strengthening your defense line. We also look forward to a successful draw. We look forward to seeing the Dynamo as a strong and efficient team that will delight fans with quality football. “
As a reminder, the draw for the Champions League group stage will take place on Thursday, October 1. Starting at 6:00 p.m. The content of the baskets can be found here >>
