Head coach of Victoria Anatoliy Bessmertny shared his impressions of the results of the Ukrainian Cup draw.
Anatoly Bessmertny"Of course, I would have liked a less eminent vis-a-vis. But we have what we have. There is nothing left but to look for the pluses in this situation.
First of all, it is an opportunity for my charges to test themselves in a confrontation with such a serious opponent. Our team was formed only a few months ago.
Secondly, it is a valuable experience, as Shakhtar are a regular participant of the Champions League. Thirdly, it is a great advert for FC Viktoria. But I would like to warn you: those who think Victoria are doomed are mistaken.
Will the match take place in Sumy? I don't want to predict anything, especially since the draw took place just a few hours ago. I only know that Shakhtar do not like to play in the all-Ukrainian arena away from their home ground during European Cup battles. Therefore, everything can happen. But this question is better to ask our club management in a week or two," said Bessmertnyy.
