Penalties?
Krznar talked about whether he would like to decide the match from the penalty spot: "From this perspective, I wouldn't. I think we can solve this sooner. To sign an extension, I would. But, penalties ... They're still a lottery."
What lessons it leaves
Damir Krznar stated about what he learned from the first meeting against Sheriff: "It may sound a bit strange for someone, but it is essential to close approaches to our goal. That was our problem in Tiraspol. Regardless of everything, the first task is not to concede a goal, but also to go on the attack with one player, two extras. We should "take" the depth and prevent Sheriff's deadly counter. When I say that we have to take care of the defense, do not misunderstand me as a "bunker". We have to go extremely offensive. We will show that with our team, but we should not neglect the defense phase. That's the mistake that happened to us in Tiraspol. There has to be a balance between defense and attack, but I guarantee that we will play attacking the whole game".
They arrived
Both teams are already at the venue of the match, it will be of great importance what will happen in the course of the match to see if Sheriff will keep their advantage or Dinamo will come back.
