Football. ua is the announcement of the match of the second round of the League of Europe between Vorskla and Sporting.
After the defeat of Arsenal, the team of Vasily Sachko will try to get hold of the first points in a duel with one of the grandees of Portuguese football. Despite the disparity of match experience at the European level, the Poltava club has chances for a positive result.
Vorskla - Sporting Thursday, 20:00, Poltava, Vorskla them. Alexey Butovsky. The arbitrator - Nikola Dabanovich (Montenegro). Live broadcast on TV channel Football 1 Yeah, no luck Vorskla with rivals in the group. And if Arsenal is considered one of the recognized favorites of the current Europa League, then Sporting intends to at least go as far as possible in the tournament.. Not a gift and already experienced in serious battles Karabakh. True, there were no sensations in the starting round.. The Portuguese beat the Azerbaijanis (2: 0) and Naparu with Arsenal topped the table.
Vorskla from the UK came with almost nothing. Practically, for to score two goals against the Arsenal for Poltava is already a kind of achievement.. That's just before the gate of Bogdan Shust "gunners" managed to hit four. Could and more, but did not develop. Team Sachko in any case should not be ashamed. The Eurocup experience of Poltava with Arsenals is incommensurable, and for any outcome, except, perhaps, a crushing fiasco, there is no sense to ask from the team. So say, a win-win with hope. Alas, not justified ... Another thing, home match. If not victories, then at least a draw fans to demand from their favorites in the right. Moreover, things in the domestic championship went smoothly. Victory replaces victory, and the goal to repeat the bronze success no longer seems utopian.. Sachko costs minimal rotation, and she brings the result. For example, in Chernigov, a strong Desna was beaten (0: 2), and the mentor managed to test several reservists in action.. So in the Premier League Vorskla at full speed rushes to the third Alexandria reaching. The distance to the cherished third position is now measured by just one tournament point.. But the handicap from the main competitor in the fight for the Dawn medals has already reached five points. September works are not in vain.
Sporting this season, too, started quite well. In the Sagres native league, Jose Pezeiro’s team is habitually in the leading group. More precisely, in the quartet. After six rounds, the lsabontsy close the top four, and in the last match of the house they beat Maritimo (2: 0). Despite not the brightest game in his performance, the 18-time champion of Portugal this season is set to seriously compete for the final first place. Competitors in the form of Porto and Benfica are very difficult, but for Sporting such a disposition is quite usual. Moreover, to present opponents is by whom. In addition to a qualified mentor in the "lions" can be noted once high-hoped Nani. The famous midfielder just landed in the summer to his native shores, and in his incomplete 32 years trying to reload his career. It is also worth highlighting the Dutch striker Basa Dosta, who can single-handedly decide the outcome of a fight of any level.
In any case, the arrival of such an opponent will certainly cause a genuine stir in Poltava. Local fans are not spoiled by European fights, and will surely provide native Vorskla with hot support. Team Sachko it will be very useful. And there, you see, and with the result of sucks.
