Champions League
Bondarenko: Shakhtar knows our progress and we will go there
Donetsk Shakhtar is ahead in a nominal home match of the fifth round of the UEFA Champions League in Hamburzi, beating Belgian side Antwerp.
Player of the “orange-blacks” Artem Bondarenko commented on the performance of the powerful team after the match ended.
“First of all, because I am nice to my friends, because I am very happy to play again! Because I have been following the team, this month has been quite difficult for me: I have trained hard for 24 years and tried my best to convert run as quickly as possible.
I want to tell everyone who was involved in my innovations, who “followed me”, who was not exactly cheerful and gave everything for me, that I still appreciate and even so many people who helped me turn around.
According to the competition, we are happy to win and guarantee our place in Europe, but this is not the maximum goal. We know our lead and we go for it. I hope everything will work out.
We won despite the pitch being full of filth, but we showed character and everything went as expected.
Ushkodzhenya is less turbulent, but it is important to turn around after a month’s break. It is now necessary to practice on the field step by step, but I think today will be better.
Our plan is to first control the ball and the game. But the field was very important, everyone realized that once again no compromises are necessary, even beautiful football is beautiful football, but the result is necessary. That’s why we weren’t complicated at certain times and played more reliably and simply. Overall, the result is that all is well.
It is important to say why it is more important for us to play in the championship than Liza’s champions. In the championship the teams are more closed, here we miss the last part of any bitterness. I hope everything will be fine: there will be difficult matches, the team will work hard to progress, change the coaching guidelines and achieve a positive result.
It is clear that in Nimechchyna you can feel the support of sick people. And we are very grateful for those who support us, no matter which country we play in. So we can give another big shout out. We have a price,” said the Ukrainian fakhivets.
In the last match of the match, Donetsk will play Shakhtar against Portuguese side Porto.

Earlier, English Manchester City played a match against French Monaco in a new round of the UEFA Champions League.
After the match, the head coach of the “Locals” Pep Guardiola commented on the performance of the powerful team.
“In football you can always perform better – and this is the result. Our game today was very good in many ways. And step by step we will improve our results.”
Ale mi gave many speeches today in the right way. We created many scoring opportunities and found Phil Foden active in the first half. Most Gravians played at a fairly high level.
Previously, they did not let their opponents create anything, but created the chances themselves. We adapted very well to the superniks and played very well. This is my opinion.
If you get a good match on the right side, of course you have to… Today we got a great ball, that’s all I can tell you right away.
Holland? It’s really good. He plays to score goals. He struggled with three centre-backs and two supporting defenders in front of him, and it wasn’t easy for his partners to know that. Ale, we can work hard to score goals.
Tse bula spravdi garna gra. We created a lot of chances, but unfortunately in the end we didn’t defend perfectly against a free kick, which would have been quite a few, and we conceded a penalty, which was awarded when the ball hit the first one… well, that’s it.
Referee? “I have nothing to say to the Spanish referees,” said the Spanish footballer.
In the coming round, English Manchester City will visit Spanish Villarreal.
