I sympathetically defeated Dinamo against Fenerbahçe in the first round of the Europa League group stage. Even when these two teams played in the qualifiers of another League – the champions – there was a strong impression that Jesus team was stronger than Lucescu team.

A little stronger, just a little. But stronger. And if, in the first case, the Dynamo helped (from the word a lot) and luck, as well as willpower and character, then in the second case, without the accompanying Fortune for the “white-blue”, the “canaries” simply took. Toll. Roughly so, ugly. But mostly, he deserved it.

However, there were other plans for the match against AEK Larnaca. And expectations. Despite the confident victory of the Larnaca team in the last match against Dnipro-1, there was no impression that the Cypriots were superior to the Dnipro team. Just then, Kucher’s team was openly “disbanded”. Yes, and the rookie goalie has always been a weirdo. Dynamo, on the other hand, has a collapsed squad, an experienced manager and, to be objective, a higher overall player level.

FC Dynamo

What I saw in the Krakow duel drove me to despair. It seemed to me that Dynamo continues to play against Lvov: the team cut the field on foot, only speeding up from time to time, the team had no speed at all. And if Lviv managed to win with such a game, first of all, the opponent turned out to be clearly unpretentious, but now the plan for the “white-blue” game, if any, did not work out. .

You can complain about a tough field like Dubinchak, you can count on the sinfulness of the refereeing team and VAR like Lucescu, but all these arguments that could play out in favor of the losers under other, much nicer circumstances, now look like obvious excuses.

First of all, it’s an excuse, because Dynamo didn’t deserve to win. More precisely, namely: he did not play enough. If the canceled goal of Buyalsky is taken out of brackets, then a stray blow can be remembered from the positive, perhaps Sirota. And that’s all.

Before the game, the Dynamo mentor once again – for the nth time already – complained about the complexity of logistics. And about the injuries of Shaparenko and Bushchan. But it also pointed to the need to beat the opponent.

The difficulties of “moving” in a given situation must be acknowledged, because the whole country is now moving in a similar rhythm. Worse. But apparently, neither the Dynamo coach nor his wards think so. Sorry then.

It is a pity that Zhora and Kolya parted for a long time. These are really losses: both for the “capital” and for the Ukrainian team, which will soon play the decisive matches of the League of Nations. But still, in this case, I will allow myself to complain about the Dynamo leadership, who in the off-season did absolutely nothing to at least somehow strengthen the team. I’m sure, and no one can convince me that this can be done. Even with a little blood. Why did they not – apparently, they believed in the teamwork and professionalism of the team, the qualities and luck of the coach.

The team turned out to be very vulnerable. Like that clay ear, the first serious “nix” also collapsed. The new blood would cheer him up. But it was almost out of stock. Yes, Kabaev got into a problematic position “on the flag”, but the hole in the attack was not closed. Excuse me, but the purchase of a particular Parris on the same “flag” is an attempt to change the curtains in a burning house.

FC Dynamo. Mircea Lucescu

Now about the trainer. By definition, as a fan, I cannot complain about what Mircea Lucescu did in his matches against Fenerbahçe (in the first case) and Sturm. Yes, there were nuances – like timeless (in my opinion) substitutions, but the final result changed all these and other nuances.

But the further into the forest, the more pronounced the “negarazdy”. In addition to Mircea’s “yell” at the coaching bridge – both the referees and his guards – it’s unclear whether he made timely adjustments to the game. He’s played the team from scratch in the last six games: maybe, I guess, somehow.

As for the last match – against AEK – incomprehensible tactics were added to the incomprehensible bureaucracy regarding substitutions. Why is it so clearly “pulling rubber”? Are the replacements worse? But it couldn’t be worse!

And Beyond. It seems that luck, luck, chuyka – call it whatever you want – just broke up with Mr. In his arsenal there was almost always such an argument in his favor, other things being equal. Now, luck lady seems to have decided to change her residence permit.

And almost everything collapsed. Like a burnt barn – burn and hut.

If this windy lady doesn’t return to the gray-haired Dynamo helmsman, her crew will have a very, very hard time. And “alive”, that is, throughout the season, and especially in the current Europa League, where there will be a spark with a stronger opponent than before.

I realize now is not a good time to fire the coach. So, for the Surkis. Because in that case they will put their blame on others and it will be very revealing and ugly. Moreover, according to Igor Mikhailovich, he absolutely trusts his coach.

And if so, you will need to transfer the “bedding”. That is, “shake” the composition. A team that has lost faith in the infallibility of the coach. And a spark in your eyes.

In this case, I honestly feel sorry for Dynamo. But it’s their fault.
