Champions League
Marino PUSICH: “Shakhtar completed the first mission of the season”
Shakhtar coach Marino Pusic appreciated the victory against Antwerp in the Champions League and the team’s guarantee of the European spring.
Shakhtar achieved their first and important goal this season. It was not that easy to do this in such a group. I’m more than happy. All players performed well. Matvienko’s goal? He’s a great player and I defended him when things weren’t going well. I wasn’t expecting his goal, but I know he can score from set pieces. “It’s no surprise to us.”
“We can say that this is already my team. A month has passed and you can tell that. As for the Porto game, we still have time. “We achieved the goal of staying in Europe and then we will think about how to play against Porto,” Pusic said.
Victory against the Portuguese team will take Shakhtar to the knockout stage of the Champions League.
