Then we talked in the locker room, and in the second half, the game was completely different: we controlled the ball more and were not afraid to act. We fell a little short. We conceded a rather comical goal and could not score. It’s a pity.
I am very happy that I managed to save the penalty shot, but it’s a pity that the team lost. “Arsenal” is quite a good team that plays football, so I believe we gave a worthy fight and demonstrated a decent game. Is the score fair? I think we could have secured a draw,” Riznyk is quoted by the official website of “Shakhtar”.
