Nottingham Forest head coach Sean Dyche commented on Oleksandr Zinchenok’s performance in the European League match against Utrecht, where the team won 2:1.

After Dyche’s words, the Ukrainian lushly jumped into the match and confused the coaching staff to come up with a plan for the fight.

“To be honest, this was not part of our plans. We found ourselves in a different role from Zinchenko, and only a few times, even competently replacing the center.

He acts unconventionally, constantly looking for the ball and changing accents. Such footballers will make you think and overwhelm you during the match,” said the coach.

Let’s not forget that Zinchenko joined Veresna on loan from Arsenal to Nottingham Forest. In the current season, the 28-year-old footballer played these matches without any effective action.

Aston Villa defeated Basel (2:1) in the main stage of the Conference League.
