Shakhtar midfielder Georgiy Sudakov commented on the team's victory over Vorskla in the 1st round of the Ukrainian championship.
"To be honest, the scoreline is natural, but the game was really very hard. It's incredibly difficult to play on such a pitch, and I'm even a little surprised that such fields are allowed to play in the championship, because you can't demonstrate a quality game on such a surface. But still, our team has incredible skills, and this can be seen in the goals scored. We brought the score to a natural result.
Who will Shakhtar compete with for the Ukrainian league title this season? I think that, as always, the competition will be between Shakhtar and Dynamo. This is history, so nothing will change," Sudakov was quoted as saying by Shakhtar's official website.
