Coach Jiangsu Sunin Fabio Capello shared his impressions of Shakhtar.

Former coach of Roma Fabio Capello, now head of Jiangsu Sunin, warned the "wolves" of Shakhtar's underestimation, with which his current team sparred at training camps in the UAE.

"Shakhtar regularly participates in the European Cup tournaments," Capello said in an interview with the press service of Roma. - The Ukrainian team already has history and traditions of performances in the Champions League. And that's why you can not underestimate this opponent, it will be a big mistake. Despite the fact that Shakhtar is only preparing for the season, he made a strong impression on me. This is a very well organized team that never gives up and does not forgive mistakes. She can not give free space, besides, she is deadly on counterattacks. In two or three touches, Shakhtar can organize a goal. The Shakhtar football players are very technical, especially for the Brazilians. Since the days of Mircea Lucescu, the club has been able to find young Brazilians and bring up real stars. In order to get through to the next round, Roma must demonstrate the maximum of his abilities ".
