Shakhtar's head coach Paulo Fonseca commented on the match against Lviv (2-0).

Miner in the fifth round of the ULL managed to beat Lviv 2-0 thanks to the goals of Marlos and Sergei Bolbat.

"Deserved victory. Despite the fact that the hosts had one great moment, Shakhtar dominated. The opponent completely closed on the defensive and seldom crossed the middle of the field. In the locker room, we could leave, scoring more. In the second half, the result forced Lviv initiative, but it remained compact and remained deep behind. We were patient, attentive in defense and completely controlled the game. As soon as there was an opportunity, they tried to open the zones in the defense of the Lvov, and in the end they scored the second ball, which is absolutely natural. A good and well-deserved victory, "- quotes Fonseca official website of the Miner.

- It seemed that Shakhtar was not playing one hundred percent. Are you satisfied with the intensity?.

- I'll explain to you.. It is very difficult to increase the intensity, when 10 players of the opponent closed at their own penalty area and there are no free zones. We have to keep the ball and wait for the right time to overcome the defenses. But when we are already entering the zone that we want to open, indeed, it is necessary to accelerate. But when these zones are not present, it is necessary constantly to perepasovyvatsja and to wait. It is important to have patience. In this case, high intensity is not very necessary. Sometimes we took some time controlling the ball.

- The question in the light of the latest rumors. Shakhtar with Tyson and without him - two different teams?.

- Teams are always different, if there is not enough one or another football player. Shakhtar with Stepanenko and without him, Shakhtar with Marlos and without him and so on. We have important elements that bring in the game special characteristics. With Tyson in our actions more speed.

- Today in the start was Wellington Nem, and the newcomers were left in the reserve or not included in the application. Fernando did not play, Maicon appeared at the end. Are they not ready yet?.

- Fernando is sick the whole week, he did not train. Otherwise my decisions. I repeat once again: they are very young guys, they are 18-19 years old, they have fallen into other realities and need time for adaptation. Here is more demanding football. In Brazil, Fernando or Cipriano did not play in the first team, and played in his division. If you analyze the history of young Brazilians in Shakhtar, you will see that almost none of them played at full speed immediately. The process is absolutely normal, and you need to understand it. Nevertheless, since we are talking about Fernando, he did not train and today is not here because of illness.

- Bolbat came out and scored. How do you rate it? Can I wait for Sergei in the starting lineup in the next matches?.

- We will see. The Bolbat of those whom I highly respect and praise.

He is a great professional who wants to play. Does not fall into the application, but always works the same - at the maximum. To such players I sooner or later give the opportunity to play. Bolbat worked very well, and I decided that today he deserved. On the field, Sergei, as always, gave one hundred percent. He deserved a goal scored. Let's see what will happen in the future.

In the next round, Shakhtar will play against Olimpic. The match will be held on August 24.
