Carpathians were in the quarter finals of the Cup of Ukraine, beating Cherkasy region-Academy with a score of 1: 0. Christian Pondet shared his impressions of the Cup match in Cherkasy.
"We knew the game would be difficult. Of course, this is a team from the Second League, but we understood that we would win, provided we show more than our opponents. However, if we talk about the quality of the game, it did not work out, as we would like to see. However, the Carpathians won and this is the most important. Contender went all out. Cherkasy Academy is a combat team. We analyzed their fights, smashed the opponent. Preparing for a difficult game. I repeat - the most important thing is that we won. We will feel more confident in the future, "- Ponde is quoted by the official website of the Carpathians.
"In the episode that ended with a goal, I received a pass from the left flank. Turned one on one with a rival. I decided to beat him and break through. It seems to me that the goalkeeper just did not see the moment of impact. I managed to score in the second match in a row - this is very important. Feeling great. It's my job to score goals for the team and for the team ".
"Position under the attacker? Yes, I can play well there. I own a good shot and can give the transfer. I am trying to use these qualities and progress ".
