Following the Neftchi vs. Dinamo (2:1) match in the 22nd round of the Super League, Fergana's head coach, Vitaliy Levchenko, participated in a press conference and answered journalists' questions in detail.
According to him, the argument was very difficult. "We started the match well and scored a goal, but soon the score equalized. Then the ball hardly stopped in the center of the field. Both teams had opportunities. Today's victory is the result of my players' hard work. I also congratulate the CEO, who is celebrating the birthday of our team," Levchenko said.
The coach also responded to the fans' objections. He emphasized that not celebrating the victory on the field after the game stems not from indifference towards the fans, but from great mental and physical exhaustion. "We always play for the fans, victories are dedicated to them. "I am grateful to them for their trust and support," he added.
During the press conference, Levchenko also addressed the opponent, Dinamo, noting that their counter-attacks were dangerous. At the same time, he noted that the two teams have thoroughly studied each other's strengths, and this situation has affected the game.
One of the questions asked by journalists was about a survey conducted in Tajikistan. Levchenko received 64% of the vote and was selected as the "Best Coach." "Of course, this is pleasant for me, but there are more worthy coaches than me. They are achieving great results. "The support of fans and journalists is a great trust," he said.
The coach also commented on the young striker Shahzod Nematjonov. According to him, Nematjonov, having joined the team, gave strength to the game and took an active part in the goal attack. "This young man has great potential, we will give him the opportunity to develop," Levchenko said.
The Fergana coach's open and sincere statements sparked heated discussions among fans. It seems Neftchi remains in the spotlight not only for their victories on the field but also for the head coach's thoughts.
