Former Dynamo Kyiv goalkeeper Svyatoslav Syrota has spoken out about Shakhtar Donetsk's 1-0 victory over Spanish side Barcelona in yesterday's Champions League group stage match on Matchday 4.
"Congratulations to Shakhtar on their victory. Few people believed in it. Sikan scored a beautiful goal in the best traditions of Andriy Shevchenko.
I don't want to evaluate the game, you saw everything yourself. Complete domination by Barca, but no chances.
As for me, when the second goal was scored, there was no offside. Although it doesn't matter now.
I really liked Riznyk's performance. There are few goalkeepers in the country who play confidently on the outs. Or even play on the outs. We were a bit lucky not to get a penalty. There are such moments. If the referee had awarded a penalty, no one would have argued.
Congratulations, Ukrainians!" wrote Sirota on his Facebook page.
