During his visit to the Kharkiv Regional Children's Clinical Hospital No. 1, the Miners’ manager Paulo Fonseca addressed the children and the staff of the medical facility, also responding the questions from the mass media
- FC Shakhtar is happy to help you solve certain problems because we can do it. And we will continue supporting you. I see the work carried out here for the treatment and recovery of children, I notice some improvements every year. From the bottom of my heart, I want to congratulate you on that. I wish everyone who is currently sick to get well soon. Shakhtar is always with you!
- Paulo, what are your impressions of the visit?
- I’m always really touched when coming here. The way they receive us is pleasant and will be remembered forever. I feel that I’m already part of the hospital, and this means a lot to me. We give gifts not just to children, but also to the hospital. I am delighted to see each year how it’s improving, what a great job is being done here. All this is important and really helps the children recover. I am sure that Shakhtar will always be ready to help. The people here deserve it - they make a great effort every day to make the lives of children much better. I think absolutely everyone notices that.
- How is the preparation for the game vs Olimpik going? What’s your focus of attention?
- Nope, here we’re not going to talk about other things. We’ll think about the game tomorrow. Life is much more important than any football game.
- You came here exactly a year ago before your meeting with Manchester City. They wished you to win, you did so and advanced from the group. You’re facing the Lyon game and a competition for the knockout stage berth. Can we say that you came here to attract luck?
- I hope so, I hope this will bring us luck. At least the positive feelings that they conveyed to us are really important to us.
