Abraham Khashmanyan, head coach of Alashkert, summarized the match against Dinamo (0:2). According to Khashmanyan, it was a logical result but added that they could have scored a goal.

Abraham Khashmanyan (head coach of Alashkert): “Today our main problem was that we lacked defenders in lineup. Overall, I think we did not hold a bad match.

Of course, today Dinamo had advantage and it could have scored more goals. However, we had three good moments but I think we were unlucky. Now our goal is to hold the second leg well.

We were good in the first half but lost dynamics in the second one.

I can say nothing about referee. He is the UEFA referee and I cannot have a pretension. There was a great atmosphere at the stadium. It is good to play on such arena and field.

During the match I am concentrated on my players but I must say Rene Santos was the best on the field. Besides him, Giorgi Kvilitaia and Aleksandre Amisulashvili also held a good match.

In my opinion, there were not two different halves – the first goal effected on us.
