The head coach of Kyiv's Obolon, Serhiy Shyshchenko, has told how the Brewers will play against Shakhtar next Monday in the Ukrainian Premier League match on Matchday 7.
Serhiy Shyshchenko (photo: fc.obolon.ua)- I believe in the team, that we will be disciplined and aggressive. We will not give up, play football, score goals, strive to win every game. The guys understand this. I am optimistic about the future because I see the guys' desire to change the situation. I am very lucky to have the opportunity to work with such players.
- Before the start of the season, Obolon's management set a goal of finishing in the top 10. Is it relevant now?
- Everyone understands that we need to solve the local task and go as high as possible.
- Ahead, Obolon will face Shakhtar, who will return home after the Champions League battles. Is there a chance to catch up with the champion?
- It will depend on the choice of players for the match against us. Only the game will show whether Shakhtar's participation in the Champions League will play into their hands. They have a lot of great players at their disposal. We watch and analyze a lot.
- Do you see for yourself how you can take points from the champion?
- Every team has problems. We will try to convey to the guys how they can use this to their advantage and punish Shakhtar for their mistakes. You can see for yourself that it is not easy to play with every team in the league.
