Shakhtar ahead of schedule defended the title of champion of Ukraine in the match of the 27th round against Alexandria.

" Today we were able to do it.. Those who see 16 points in the standings might think it was just. But no one gave us anything - we achieved this through our work, dedication, ambition and respect for each other. "

" And now there is a sense of accomplishment. We are happy to see our fans around us happy, the team staff, the administration, the president and, of course, the coaching staff. Shakhtar family is happy! We added another title to such a great club. "

About Aunt and Linnet:.

“When I look at the list of my players, it’s always very difficult for me to choose the starting lineup. Competence and competition in our team is felt daily, throughout the working week. I feel everyone is ready. The guys know: they play for five to ten minutes or an hour, I always expect the best return from them. It’s the same in the match: I always believe in them and that they can solve the problems they face on the field "

“We released Linnet to give more depth on the left flank and increase the quality of innings in the last third, because this is a footballer who is used to playing in it. When they released Tete, they knew that he had a great opportunity to complete the attacks and the best pitch, that he could decide the outcome of the match in some episodes. They knew that so we have more opportunities to score a goal. Very often we think about it, but sometimes in practice everything turns out not so well. In this case, everything turned out. However, now I want to praise the work of the whole team, because we turned the result around, and do not try to choose a specific hero.

The heroes were all the players of our team "

On the position of the left back:.

" All guys work daily for a week to get into the starting lineup.. Now I have bet on Cipriano. This is a football player working in the “five” position throughout the season, and other guys can also act in the place of the left-back. Whoever worked better all week, that’s what I’m setting, ”cites Luis Kashtru as Shakhtar’s official website.
