Head coach of "
" We noticed how good Marseille is as a team, despite all their problems. But I can tell you that the stink is still Marseille, with a great number of very strong individual football players who give the opportunity to achieve results. We were caught at the hour of the first game and were ready for the next one, so as to be sure of the important moments that we are going to make.. Each time there will be a great duel: the first one will play with equal, melodious intensity, the other will have the same thing.
It’s important to play a big match here, at Marseille, - I’m so sure about this against Feynord two years ago in the UEFA Conference League semifinals. I know how you can be loud in this stadium with a large number of patients, but it’s also very welcoming, because you play such fights in this atmosphere, with this pressure and everything that goes on in such matches. Therefore, we are impatiently waiting for the game and will be ready before it. And if there is a change, then football is changing every day, and everything is possible. Our warehouse also has a lot of possibilities for changes. If it happens that the coach can also change, it is certain that they can change the style of play. Everything comes down to adaptation at this point, and I respect that we adapt to any given situation.
Change of coach in Marseille? This is always a good situation when a club changes coaches before a game, hoping to achieve what. They can introduce a number of changes - we don’t know about this, but it’s also possible. Proteus does not affect our preparation before the game. We focus entirely on ourselves, on the development of our style. Of course, we are known as our supernik, as we have always loved him, and those that we lose at the same time, but it’s crazy to stay with their coach, and, as I said earlier, this is a great club, a team with a very large number of individuals yakosti. For the least important thing, a football match has to adapt to the field. We are ready to report on many moments, and I am confident that we will show you tomorrow. As I always tell my team: we came to fight with another team. This is another gra, we have come to play football, we deserve the atmosphere, we deserve this tension, so we look forward to this match with impatience.
Who plays Stepanenko? I’ll be honest, we don’t know yet. He is a strong guy, we call him a “sweet man,” he is our captain, a wonderful football player with a remarkable character, so we suspect that he will be ready to play tomorrow, having almost missed an hour of preparation. This evening at the training we will enjoy how it feels. Everything will be ok, we'll be happy. It would be good for us, and even good, important for our team. As I’ve already said, it’s all about character, and I’m clear that in the report of everyone, we’re trying to prepare for our team, to help them and lose, as we’ll have to work again. I will obviously be even more radiant, since Stepanenko will be on the field tomorrow. However, it is possible that there may be other gravitationalists who can replace him. Pobachimo tomorrow.
Shchodo Kriskova, having done well during the preparation period, unfortunately, was injured at the last moment and was unable to play in the first match. But a lot of days have already passed, so it feels better, it’s more challenging today, and tomorrow we won’t have a bad reaction, being one of the candidates for participation in the game. Today it feels good, so you have to practice in the evening. Pobachimo tomorrow. A great gravel with great prospects and, as I said, having done well during the preparation period, having played good matches, it was also unacceptable not to be in the warehouse in the first match, otherwise there would have been. There may be other players to replace, and there is also positive competition in the team, which is good. The people are raising one another to the greatest heights, diligently working on what Kris’kova is also worried about. Because if you pass the test today, you will definitely be one of the candidates tomorrow.
Kevin's adaptation? As a young man from abroad, he will need an hour to adapt to a new environment, a new style of play and training.. He is young, very talented, passionate, it is important to love, he has a chance and has already lost his first mistakes in the last match. But such graves will require more than an hour to adapt, to absorb this rhythm and style of playing, and we also give them this hour, because we have a lot of young graves who need to develop and work hard, there is plenty for us new young warehouse, and vin. I’m really looking forward to maintaining my spirit in training – the way I work, the way I want to study and thoroughly study, and I’ll also be one of the candidates tomorrow, for sure.
And then Traore, then Lassina, as you know, having returned from a very difficult recovery period after an injury, having worked very hard to gain an hour in the front line with Marseille. Unfortunately, we couldn’t bring him into the game in the off-season, because he’s not ready yet, so we have to work immediately, during official matches, if it’s possible and necessary.
Vіn turns, completely, but singly, and I’m even more excited, because Lassina is a bright gravel, a young football player, and with this significant evidence. We are very happy for your mother’s sake in our warehouse,” Shakhtar’s official website quotes the words of Marino Pusich.
Guess what, the match between Marseille and Shakhtar will take place on Thursday, February 22nd, at 22:00 Kyiv time. The teams' first match ended in a scoreless draw with a score of 2:2.
