Despite losing in the quarterfinal cup match from "Mariupol" (2: 4), the head coach of the "Alliance" Yuri Yaroshenko did not look depressed.

- You know, the value of matches with higher-ranked teams is primarily that you receive comprehensive information about your vulnerabilities, - said the head of the "Alliance" in a comment to the official website of the UAF. - Here and in this confrontation we more often owned a ball, gave more corners, created at least not less scoring moments, but didn't find opposition to standards in performance of visitors. And it is impossible to say that my wards did not have information about how the rivals act in such episodes, but the class of Mariupol residents turned out to be higher at key moments. So, there is still something to work on…

Unfortunately, in the fight with Azov, I could not count on the leading performers - Vyacheslav Pidnebenny and Oleksandr Lebedenko, who are injured. I am looking forward to their return, because the spring part of the second league championship will start soon, where we have ambitious plans. I am convinced that the experience we have enriched in the cup tournament will be useful to the Alliance.
