- Did you expect your team score twice so early in the game?
- I can’t say for sure, but I know that two early goals influenced the game very much. I hope our fans enjoyed it.
- Did Poland underestimate Ukraine?
- Why do you care about Poland? You should care about our team! I think we played well. We analyzed the way our opponents play in detail. Our counterattacks were very dangerous.
- Ukraine used almost all goal-scoring opportunities which is not typical for our team…
- I don’t quite agree with that. In the second half we had some good opportunities but we didn’t score. But as for the first half, we really used always every chance.
- What did Fomenko tell the team during the break?
- Nothing special. Of course after the break we considered the scored and played less for attack. Still we tried to counterattack. If we conceded the second goal we would have become nervous.
- Which moment of the match was the most difficult?
- It was difficult when Poland score. They started playing very actively and had several goal-scoring opportunities.
- Won’t you lack motivation to play against Moldova after this win?
- We have no right to relax! If we don’t defeat Moldova, this win over Poland won’t mean anything.
- Is our team still able to qualify for the World Cup?
- Of course, we have quite good chances! England and Montenegro haven’t faced each other yet. We’ll fight till the end.
- What happened in Poland’s penalty area right before the final whistle?
- The opponent hit my leg so I think the referee was to appoint penalty.
- How can you estimate refereeing in general? Spectators whistled a lot…
- I suppose they whistled because Poles were losing.
