Central defender of Shakhtar Valery Bondar shared his opinion regarding the elimination from Panathinaikos in the third qualifying round of the Europa League.
"I think that if we take the two matches in total, we probably deserved it more. But that’s football. And that’s why we love it, the fans love it, everyone loves it. Sometimes it punishes you, so to speak. It’s a shame that we are leaving the Europa League.
We need to look ahead to the next match. We have a very important match in the championship, we will draw conclusions and move on,” Bondar said.
