Midfielder of Shakhtar Donetsk and the Ukrainian national team Georgy Sudakov commented on the defeat from Leipzig (0:4) in the Champions League.
Georgy Sudakov. Photo: shakhtar.com- Of course, I wanted to qualify for the Champions League. Getting ready for this match. Somewhere there were unfortunate mistakes at the beginning that prevented us from showing our football and our best game.
But the Europa League is also a good result, given that before the start of the Champions League, no one believed in us and did not count. Because there is - that is.
Mistakes? I don't think it's jitters. Pressing is the norm in the Champions League, it is always there. We must play.
Nothing pressed. I think that my mistake was at the beginning of the game, and then already... Despite the fact that we needed to win. It is difficult to rebuild and score 2 goals, especially for a team that has not lost for a long time. They have a very good coach, a very strong team. There was no jitters, just maybe not our day, not our game.
He did not say that it was easier against Leipzig in the first game (4:1 in favor of the miners - approx.). It was also difficult, just then they made mistakes, and in this one we did. Football consists of this: whoever makes the fewest mistakes wins,” Sudakov said.
