"This is the beautiful and the Champions League that no one closes. Both teams wanted to win the decisive match, but in the end it turned out to be a beautiful game.. We changed tactics, looking at the last match with Hoffenheim, acted with an experimental scheme in three defenders. I think this tactic is completely justified. Yes, we missed two goals out of the blue, but we still won. ", - Shakhtar quotes Kryvtsov quoting.

"The game after the removal? Some confusion began, they began to pressure and create chances, but in the end we figured out and snatched the victory. Initially we knew that six points in the remaining two fights guarantee us access to the playoffs, and this task is not removed. We will fight to get to the next round ".
