Leonid Kuchuk: "We were stronger in character"
The Red-Greens' coach supposed to focus on the game and discussed the substitutions in details.
- Why are we talking about refereeing? – asked Kuchuk. - I might have had my concerns about referees' work but I never commented on it. Let's focus on the tactics, on the game. Dynamo wanted to do much, but we did much not to allow them to. We were stronger in character.
At a certain point I saw we started giving away the midfield, so we made a substitution. Diarra didn't play for two weeks due the suspension which distracted him a little bit. That's why Tigorev appeared. He's a good-quality player and he proved this again today. I'd like to praise Tkachyov who appeared on the pitch and scored. Actually, a substitution is a gift that you should use wisely.
