Andrei Pyatov believes that the team has not completed the main task, but is satisfied that Shakhtar secured himself an Euro Cup spring.

“We always face the most ambitious goals in the most important tournament - the Champions League. Strive to leave the group. This year, unfortunately, did not work. Fought to the end. Everything was decided in the last match. Of course, I would like more. But fate decreed - we are in the Europa League. At least a European spring we have. In general, not the maximum, but not the worst result. We lead the national championship by a wide margin.

The most enjoyable event of 2019? Of course, the championship and the Cup of Ukraine, which we won. In general, for us every match is a holiday. We are glad that we continue our victorious journey with our fans "

Also, Andrey Pyatov praised the team’s progress for the year, which is coming to an end.

" The coach has changed, some players have come, others have left. A lot of young people appeared: both students of the Shakhtar Academy, and promising Brazilians.

The club is moving in its direction.. We really believe in these guys, we will help them become stronger. Progress is evident, and in the spring, I'm sure we will confirm it.

Expectations from 2020? We always believe in the best. We set the highest goals. We will try as hard as possible to keep the bar. And we believe that 2020 will bring us good luck, ”the Pitmen’s official website quotes the goalkeeper.

Recall that earlier, Pyatov became the best player in Shakhtar in 2019.
