FC Shakhtar Academy is going to sum this year’s achievements up. Today, U-15 head coach, Anatoliy Skirchuk is telling about his youngsters.

— Studying the table above, it is very hard to talk about any problems. Especially, the figures in Conceded Goals column make me happy so much, as one conceded goal per eight games it is very and very good. The defenders Vasyl Sagaydak, Vadym Lavrynenko and Volodymyr Praslov played well. Besides, they defended really brilliantly, as well as they contributed much to attacks. I also do not have any complaints about our goalkeepers that suffered difficulties, as they did not have much job to do. By the way, we do not have a key goalkeeper.

Artem Gabelok and Mykyta Adamenko were said to be the team leaders. And the last one, by the way, was considered to be the best striker in the group. He converted 8 goals. Nevertheless Anatoliy Skirchuk is convinced it is better to play against strong rivals; otherwise, there is an underestimation of rival quite possible. In the head coach’s words, the worst game is against Arsenal Kharkiv. Besides, the second half against Dnipro appeared to be confused.

— I do not have any complaints about their attitude towards job or trainings, but I have some remarks about the quality of play. They need to work hard to prove their level. The most important and difficult things are ahead. To gain the championship trophy we will have to beat such strong teams like Dynamo Kyiv, RUFK, Chornomorets Odesa and Karpaty Lviv, U-15 head coach said.
