The winning streak of “Dynamo” was interrupted: “white and blue” unexpectedly lost to “Akron”

In this match there were two different halves, which was announced after the match by both coaches - and Srdjan Blagojevich, and Sandro Schwartz. Blagojevic comments on it as a bit of a routine: We played pretty much the way we wanted to. Dominated, you can say, controlled the match in attack and defense. They played very bravely and made high-quality decisions even under the pressure of the opponent. And the result looked very deserved - 1: 0. At the break I told the guys it was one of the best or best times we worked together. He asked to extend it for a full match, but could not, Blagojevich said in a post-match interview with Match TV.

At the same time, Schwartz looked at the situation from a slightly different angle. We didn’t have enough energy, we didn’t have aggressive defense in the first half. We were kind of slow, but at half-time we made changes and dominated until the end of the game. However, the goal from the penalty was very painful for us. The third ball put an end, said Schwartz.

At the same time, it should be added that Schwartz’s experienced coaching look noted large gaps between the lines, which, of course, became smaller in the second half. All this Schwartz called mental problems, completely refusing to explain the meager first half external factors, such as the early start of the match.

However, at the beginning of the second half, Dynamo equalized the score. It was after this goal that the most interesting and fascinating began. So, from the penalty Croatian midfielder Christian Bistrovich scored the second goal of Akron. Of course, after the match, Schwartz did not say exactly these words, but transparently hinted that this goal broke the Dynamo game.

After the match, Blagojevich in communication with the correspondent of Match TV, if not expressed, then certainly told about his surprise to his own wards. In the second half, Dynamo had better quality moments, but I have to admit that this beautiful Bistrovich goal practically solved this game. Dynamo had everything in their hands, and the penalty helped us a lot, and, of course, the last goal, after which we ceased to fear defeat. I hope that we will go through the rest of the season in the same rhythm, Blagojevich said.

Interestingly, for the second half, Dynamo came out, slightly rearranging the ranks. Ivan Sergeev left in place of Daniil Fomin. According to Schwartz, the exit of Sergeyev allowed the team to play with two strikers and a dozen. However, this restructuring, although it led to the goal of Yaroslav Gladyshev, but did not save from the beautiful penalty Bistrovich. Thus, the coaching staff needs to play an attacking squad with two forwards so that he has time in defense. Already in the time added by the arbitrator, Maxim Boldyrev established the final score.

However, Schwartz was not particularly discouraged after this defeat. The energy we had in the second half must remain and be used throughout the match, from the start to the end. So we need to talk about the positives that we can take from this match, Schwartz said after the game.

Meanwhile, the victory was given to "Akron" at a great price. The team will not be able to field Bistrovich, Vyacheslav Bardybakhin and Stefan Lonchar in the next match. All three of them went overboard with yellow cards, which leads to disqualification in the next meeting. By the way, Acron will play in Kaliningrad against Baltika. Meanwhile, Dynamo will host Akhmat at home. But before that, in the middle of the week, the “blue and white” will leave for Krasnodar for a cup match with the eponymous team.
