Goalkeeper Shakhtar Andrey Pyatov gave an interview to Football. ua on the eve of the duel between Donetsk and Lugansk Dawn.

According to the experienced goalkeeper Shakhtar, the "miners" who played for the national team of Ukraine, should as soon as possible forget the failure in the match with Iceland and focus on the next opponent in the Premier League - Zara.

"The match against Iceland has become difficult both physically and psychologically. Nevertheless, everything has already passed. We need to draw conclusions and move on, "said Pyatov.

"We must be professionals. This is life and this is football - you do not always win. Of course, there was an unpleasant precipitate, but we must switch. We came to the club and must forget the national team. When we return to the national team, we will analyze everything, now all thoughts are only about Shakhtar ".

Also Andrew shared his opinion about the Luhansk team, which will confront the Miner.

"I do not want to single out specific names in the rival. Dawn unsuccessfully started the championship, the team changed many players and now they are looking for the optimal composition, as they will fight in the Europa League. Those players who came to want to prove that the team's failures were an accident, they want to win, because the match will be difficult ".

At last, Pyatov answered the question whether Yarmolenko's departure from Dynamo would weaken the main competitor of Shakhtar in the fight for the championship.

"It does not concern me. I'm only interested in my team. If we show the game that the coach wants to see from us, then, with all due respect to Andrei Yarmolenko, no rival will be terrible to us ".

The match between Shakhtar and Zarey will be held on September 9 and will start at 17:00 Kyiv time.
