The post-match press conference by the Shakhtar head coach Paulo Fonseca
- Good evening. We turned in a wonderful performance. We were strong from the off and scored five goals just in the first half. We played at a high level and at an excellent pace. We also had multiple quality episodes, when we could notch up two or three more goals. In the second half, we had to keep the rhythm, still slightly reducing the pace. We were creating fewer chances, but even then we had two or three more possibilities to be converted. In general, we delivered some decent quality football.
- What do you make of the weather conditions?
- Indeed, it’s not easy at all to play in that kind of frosty weather. At the same time, I want to say that we showed great intensity. Probably, this match was the coldest in my career both as a player and as a coach.
