Shakhtar midfielder Viktor Kovalenko commented on the upcoming fight with Vorskla, the fight for the championship and refused to discuss the future of the mentor "miners" Paulo Fonseca.
- Three duels a week - how much for Shakhtar is this problematic?.
- We now have a good rotation, the team is ready to play three games a week.
- Due to disqualification there will be no Tyson and Ferreira. Serious loss?.
- Of course, these are important players and their absence will complicate the situation somewhat. But those who will leave tomorrow on the field, will do everything to help Shakhtar.
- Have you recovered from a meeting with the Dynamo? Dismissed what happened then?.
- This is the story. There was already a match with Mariupol, we won, reached the final, and now we are preparing for the next one - with Vorskla.
- Football players among themselves discuss the future of Paulo Fonseca?.
- We do not talk on this topic.
- Vorskla is the main contender for bronze. Is it fair?.
- In the last round Poltava players beat Zarya with a score of 3: 0, so this is a good team. Tomorrow is a tough fight. We dismantled them: we must carefully consider counterattacks.
- Nevertheless, Shakhtar and Vorskla do not have any special problems: in all matches of the season you scored three goals ... - God grant, it will continue! (Laughs). ) - In the title race can play the difference of goals scored and conceded goals. Does it motivate you?.
- We have the task - not to lose points and calmly approach the last meeting with Dynamo with an advantage of three points. Maybe they will also lose, so while we do not think about the difference.
