Vladyslav Kabaiev: We knew Zorya would be a tough opponent

Dynamo Kyiv midfielder Vladyslav Kabaiev shared his thoughts following his team's 2-0 victory against Zorya Luhansk in the UPL. Kabaiev noted that the squad expected a difficult challenge against a well-organized opponent.

Zorya are a very good team; it is not for nothing that people call them tough. We understood it would not be easy. We made mistakes in the transition phases during the first half. We discussed this in the dressing room, and the picture changed in the second half. Vladyslav Kabaiev

Kabaiev highlighted the importance of the team's mental response following their recent disappointment in the cup against Bukovyna. He credited goalkeeper Georgiy Bushchan for providing leadership both on and off the pitch. The midfielder also expressed gratitude to the fans for their continued support during a challenging period for the team.
