- How do you evaluate the football year of the national team?
- How can I evaluate? I am only the second time in the national team, this question is not for me. Scotland? The charge was after 0:3 in Glasgow. Everyone was waiting for this game, they really wanted to win.

- Did Petrakov say that this might be his last match in the national team?

- How do you like the support of fans in Krakow?
- It was very good - we heard it and felt it, it helped a lot and pushed us forward.
