Former Zorya goalkeeper Ihor Shukhovtsev shared his thoughts on the recent success of Ukrainian Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin.
Igor Shukhovtsev- The Champions League quarter-final against Manchester City was a turning point in Andrii Lunin's career. His performance was highly praised not only by Real Madrid's management, but also by the entire football world. In regular time, Lunin repeatedly saved Real Madrid, and then worked wonders in the penalty shootout. So it's no surprise that Real Madrid is offering him a new contract, and Lunin is setting his own terms. After all, he is one of the best goalkeepers in the world, and such a goalkeeper should not be sitting on the bench. He convincingly proved his status in the game against Manchester City.
Lunin is currently undergoing a huge psychological strain. Given that he is a very modest and calm person by nature, it will be difficult for him to survive this test of popularity. However, he must remember that he has worked hard to reach the level of the main goalkeeper of the most titled club in the world. A Real Madrid player must be able to withstand all challenges, including the pressure of fame. As for the unsuccessful exit game in the match against Barcelona, this is not a problem. He will still make mistakes. The main thing is that he draws the right conclusions and moves forward," Shukhovtsev told Express.
