The first round of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers took place on Tuesday. Latvian champion Riga will make her debut in this tournament against Irish club Dundalk.
"Recently, there was a lottery, so we did not study the composition and the Internet in more detail," Blank said. "A more important opponent's badysis will come with time, but we know that it's the strongest team in the local league."
The coach felt that the Irish unit of the Latvian club was able to draw all the opponents to win the lottery, but Blanks did not deny the fact that the match should prepare for two battles. "They are a good way to play. The battles will be difficult because, as in the English and Irish football, the matches are disputed from several angles, "said the champion of the Champions League by the head coach of Riga.
The draw for the Riga team on Tuesday was considered a success because it could theoretically receive units such as Barisava BATE from Belarus or the famous Norwegian club Rosenborg.
The next round will reach the team that will win the sum of two games. The first match will take place July 9 and 10 in Ireland and the fight will take place on July 16 and 17 in Riga.

"Even when I played myself, the teams did not go too fast for the upcoming tournaments. At the moment, we are focusing on the Latvian football superpower and, after a match against Valmiera, we will have a week to prepare for the Dundalk match, "Blanks explained in his future plans. "There are three weeks left to go, and there could be a lot to change."
The coach was also convinced that the team would soon be able to strengthen the composition, but some names did not carry the name of Blanks, simply mentioning that the additions were not solely due to the qualification to come and that club players would stay until the end of the season.
"We have not spoken to the team yet, nor have we been to Ireland, because we did not know what was going to appeal to their opponents so far. This week we will discuss what to do. At present, virtually all games are available on the Internet and we will launch a more detailed badysis of the opponent soon, "said Blanks, adding that he was generally satisfied with the lottery because its difficult course and its periods of acclimatization.
Riga, along with another club from the Latvian capital, RFS, is currently leading the standings, while the Irish championship's Dundalk team also ranks first.
