Goalkeeper Gornyakov talks about the postponed match of the 12th round with Chernomorets
Shakhtar goalkeeper Dmitry Riznyk commented on the Miners’ big victory in the 12th round match against Odessa Chernomorets, and also assessed the finish of the season for his team.
— Dmitry, a few weeks ago Shakhtar beat the sailors in the semi-finals of the Ukrainian Cup with the same score – 4:1. Is this an indicator of class difference?
— We won the match outright against the Odessa team. On Sunday, in the next game of the Ukrainian championship, we will again fight with Chernomorets. Let’s analyze this match, look at our mistakes and try to improve.
– Where else can you improve if you could win with a score of 10:1?
— You can always improve and become even better as a team.
— Your missed goal: TWas it possible to help the team out?
— I saw the moment of the blow performed by Badibanga, but the Belgian shot from close range was too painful. The opposing player shot powerfully and the ball hit me between my legs. I was just unlucky at this point.
— Marlon scored for the first time for Shakhtar in the UPL. Moreover, the Brazilian scored a hat-trick in 41 minutes of play…
“He’s great, he tried very hard.” His reward was three goals scored. Marlon helped the team, because now the series of the most important matches of the season has begun. Everyone knows that our team should not lose points at all.
— Was he replaced in the middle of the second half due to injury?
“There was some damage, but everything is fine now.”
— On Sunday, at the same stadium, Shakhtar and Chernomorets will meet again. Are you tired of playing with the same opponent so often in a short period of time?
“We all understand that this happened due to the postponement of the first round game. Of course, the UPL is not the Premier League, where they are used to playing two matches a week. Although, when there are a lot of games, you are in the necessary tone.
— The match in Kyiv took place on the first day of May, at a temperature of + 27. Did the heat prevent you from playing?
“I got in the way a little, but we are all on equal terms.”
