Following Tonybet Virsliga’s 16th-round win against FS Jelgava (4:0) Valmiera FC head coach Jurgis Kalns shared his comments and thoughts with the media.
Valmiera FC head coach Jurgis Kalns: ”Thank you to Valmiera, and to the fans. You were heard. I think this victory was yours, you deserved it. I’m glad that the eighth unbeaten game in a row – six wins, two draws. The most confident win this season, we’ve run into it in our way. It is a pleasure that the drawing and understanding of the game have become at a very good level, here we see the result. I talked about it at the beginning of the season, green pitches, let’s play, let’s all be healthy, we have a strong squad and it’s showing on the pitch right now. If we talk about the game, it is important to score quickly. I would like us to be even more prone to scoring goals. We create attacks well, but somewhere there is a bit of a lack of aggravating passes, and the willingness to take risks so that we are more inclined towards goals and scoring goals. It’s cool to see us play good hands, but nothing ends up hitting. Before the second half, I said that we are creative, we create, but I want us to be more goal-oriented. The most important thing was to deal with their only striker. We had planned that they would play 5-3-2, but they only changed to this scheme at the very end. Ede was alone in front, and we talked about the rather dull game of Niks Sliede and Andriy Korobenko, but we remained at zero – they did not cope with many functions, it is a good material to work on and adjust the details that we did not like so that they do not happen again in the future. ”
