“Tony Fruk is satisfied with the draw with Shakhtar”, — write: sport.ua
“Very difficult match, very strong opponent. We managed to get a point, although we didn’t expect it. We had nothing to lose, but a well-deserved point and we deservedly move on.
They are quite fast, look for half-space, have good one-on-one players. We needed time to get into the game. We had our moments, we didn’t score, but 0:0 is a good result.
Rijeka’s first playoff appearance since 1980? It means a lot to us, the second match at home is a wind at our backs. From the beginning of the group stage there were fluctuations, but in the end we managed to squeeze out the maximum.”
We will remind that as a result of the match, Shakhtar and Rijeka qualified for the Conference League playoffs.
