Shakhtar scored a minimal victory over Rennes
Midfielder of Shakhtar Georgy Sudakov commented victory in the first match of the 1/16 finals of the Europa League With Rennes (2:1).
“It is difficult to talk about the result now, because we probably could have done more. We conceded a very unfortunate goal, which we really did not want to miss. The score with our advantage of one goal is very difficult for the second match. But we have only taken one step and must take a second step. We are preparing and preparing for more than one match. So now all our thoughts are on the second match.”
“Before the game in France, we must draw the main conclusions in the work with the ball. You could see for yourself when we give the ball away, we have difficulties, it’s hard for us to play, because the Rennes players work well with the ball. So we better always be with the ball. I hope that in the second game we will be more with the ball and correct the mistakes in defense. I think we will succeed and we will move on.”
“For three months we did not play official matches, so it was physically difficult for us with Rennes. But these are realities, we have to adapt to them.”
Recall that the victory for Shakhtar in the first game was brought by goals from Dmytro Kryskiv and Artem Bondarenko. The second leg in France will take place on 23 February.
