It will be a tough match

- Tell us how the preparation for the match vs Kolos is going given that the current weather in Ukraine is not right for football at all?
- The weather is really not the best for playing football, but we can’t pick and choose. Despite the freezing cold, the training is going well. An important and, no doubt, tough match awaits us. We must be ready to win. We understand this and try to prepare well, fulfilling the coaches’ requirements.

- How difficult was it to adapt to the winter weather after sunny Turkey where Shakhtar held two preparatory training camps?
- Of course, it's not easy. It was warm in Turkey, and we faced real winter in Ukraine. But the training sessions here and there are not very different. I suppose we are doing well.
