“Famous Ukrainian trainer gave a prognosis for match response”, – WRITE: Sport.ua
– Miners have convincingly won in Istanbul that few people expected. For you, it was also a pleasant surprise?
– I wouldn’t say so. After all, we understand what strong players in Shakhtar. In addition, it can be said that Besiktash is no longer the one that was before. And for some reason I believed that the Pitmen played it in the first match. It is clear that it is not as convincing as it turned out, but still …
– However, it turned out that convincingly. Two balls differences, and even in the home arena of “Besiktas”, where for all ninety minutes roaring fans in the stands crashes the number of decibels …
– That’s right. Now that we already know the result, we understand the importance of this victory. As far as I know, during the pre -season assembly, the Miners’ coaching staff, headed by Arda Turba, conducted three classes a day. Therefore, they probably prevailed in physical terms, and the class showed. Libon missed such games. It is difficult at the meeting – not that now that the European Cup matches have begun. Shakhtar demonstrated a very worthy, and most importantly, quality game against the Turks. The one that his fans and the club president wanted to see. A very cool and strong game of Miners came out.
– Do you think you can victory with a score of 4: 2 as a half -battle in terms of securing the next round of competitions?
– Of course, winning, and even in the face of frantic support from the fans of the opponent really motivates our players in psychological terms. But now there is no rule of exit heads that gave an advantage of equal their number. There is a match, there is a victory – and it is clear that anything can happen. Besiktash is a team that can play two balls. Therefore, the repeated match will be very difficult. I believe that Shakhtar can in no way relax and keep the result of the first duel in his head. After all, the rival in the Donetsk is worthy, and can goodly spoil the nerves in the second meeting. Therefore, in order to pass the Turks in the sum of two games, Shakhtarev needs to be taught a thousand percent and not to think that it will be easy.
Shakhtar-Besiktash match will take place on July 31 at 21:00 Kyiv time.
