At the press conference, Genk striker Paul Onuachu spoke about the task of delivering the goods in Kyiv and advancing to the next qualifying round in the Champions League
- Paul, you are in a really good shape - two goals in the last two matches. Are you ready to showcase your best football and score more?
- Sure. That's why we are here - to score and win.
- I can feel confidence in your current performance: you operated very well and sharply against Kortrijk.
- It works like this in case of strikers: if you score, it gives you more confidence. We are ready. A few days ago, we turned in a great performance and scored three points. Now we need to repeat the same thing.
- What's the main conclusion you made based on the game a week ago?
- First of all, we are here to win. I think the past games taught us many things. We will be opposed by a good team. We will try to do our best to secure the win and advance further.
- Usually you dominate possession, but in the case of Shakhtar you have to change formation and defend. Does it complicate your tasks?
- We like to have possession. We respect Shakhtar - they are a good, quality team. When we meet with such rivals, of course we have to defend if play requires it. Nothing has changed: we need to fulfil the coach’s plan.
- Do you think that successful performance in such matches can shape your future?
- This is the Champions League - top quality matches. I only think about the game, the team and how to win. We must do our utmost to deliver a great performance.
