Former general director of Lviv Karpaty Oleksandr Efremov, following the results of yesterday's match of the 18th round of the Ukrainian championship Alexandria vs Shakhtar, told what he thinks about the current problems of the Donetsk club.
Alexander Efremov"I think, a couple more games like this, and the Krivorozhye-Croatian monohement (board) of Shakhty will be kayuk.
"Shakhtar are being hit with the phantom 80 million for Mudryk. Matvienko, Bondarenko, Konoplya, Krys'kiv, and Sudakov are fading right before our eyes - largely due to the failure of captain Stepanenko. Srna and Palkin must personally answer for all this. RLA (Rinat Akhmetov, Shakhtar president - editor's note) should have done a reset a long time ago. Now we will have to cut it from the heart. It is hard, painful, but it is essential for survival.
And a little bit about the game with Oleksandriya. Rotan surprisingly skilfully and successfully built the game. High pressure, and constant movement - these are the basics of football, but to use them effectively you need to have a very good functional training.
And another thing. "Shakhta themselves asked to postpone the kick-off (the match between Oleksandriya and Shakhtar started at 13:00 - editor's note), probably so that the boys could have dinner with their families. But it failed, and now they are already looking for external enemies: there was not enough time to recover! Funny? Disgraceful! So not sporting, not manly...", - wrote Efremov on his page in the social network Facebook.
