A comment by the head coach of Shakhtar U21 team Valeriy Kryventsov:
- We entered the phase where the players need to play on the field for 90 minutes. Those friendlies are an opportune moment, as we have been playing some great senior sides. We praised the guys for the second half against Nyva: they did some quality work on the opponents’ half of the field, a large number of interactions and three goals scored. The players have fulfilled everything that was practised in training. In the match against Cherkassky Dnipro, with a reasonably good control of the ball and correct transitions, we missed the completely unnecessary goals. After the break, we were trying to change the course of the meeting, but the experienced opponents skilfully defended and launched dangerous counterattacks. In general, we received a lot of information and are preparing further.
