Oleksandr Petrakov: "Ukrainians at Shakhtar were offended that they didn't play"

The head coach of the Ukrainian national team Oleksandr Petrakov expressed his opinion about the players of the Donetsk team on the air of the Shakhtar club Youtube channel.

— Yes, I talked to all the players. Previously, they were offended that they did not play, they were on the sidelines. Now everything is in their hands, feet and heads. They have such a chance - the Champions League. Wish them success. I understand how difficult it is for the head coach, Igor Jovicevich.

I know they still want to get stronger. I can't predict. I am a coach, this is not my job. For me, as a national team coach, it’s good that the Ukrainians will play,” Petrakov said.
