Shakhtar women's team striker Polina Yanchuk reflects on being named the Female Player of the Year
- You became the Footballer of the Year in Shakhtar women's team according to the fans. How do you feel about it?
- I am really delighted that the fans recognised me as the best! Although many players on the team also deserved it, because we all turned in a great display together.
- The team had a perfect first part of the season.
- Despite the fact that the team was formed just in the summer, we managed to interact with one another well on the pitch from the very first matches. We are happy with the result and hope that the season’s second half will be just as successful.
- Does the award motivate you?
- Of course it does! In the second part of the season we’ll have the Cup and league fixtures, so the schedule will get tighter and with more quality opponents. This is another incentive for us to beat major opponents.
- What would you like to say to the fans on New Year's Eve?
- I thank them for picking me as the Female Player of the Year and wish them a Happy New Year! I also wish them happiness, sound health, and want them to always stay with Shakhtar. And I wish my team many successful matches and all the best in the new year!
