Veres head coach Yuriy Virt commented on the team’s game in the sparring against the Armenian Pyunik (1:0).
“Good game. Today we faced a very strong opponent, a Champions League qualifier. The first days at the training camp were very difficult. The team did a lot of running work. And somewhere there was excitement that freshness would not be enough.
We played better in the second half. Before the break, they worked well in defense, but they played poorly on attack. Scored a goal that the referee did not count. There was no ball control.
But after the break, we completely beat Pyunik. They scored twice. The first goal was not counted, we scored again. Created many scoring chances.
I was pleased with the attitude of the players to work. Regarding physical conditions, we knew that it would be difficult. But in general, we looked good. We survived both halves at a high pace,” Wirth said.
