Shakhtar forward Eguinaldo shared his emotions after the victory over Inhulets (6-0) and his own goals
– Eguinaldo, congratulations on your brace! Could you recall how those goals were scored?
– It was an example of good team interaction. Newertton passed down the wing to Pedrinho, who made a run and a great delivery to me in the penalty area, allowing me to score. The second goal was in a similar style, but this time Newe delivered a brilliant cross directly – all I had to do was convert the chance.
– What do you think enabled the team to score five goals in the second half?
– In the first half, we lacked a bit of sharpness to show our best football, but at half-time, Mister gave us instructions and managed to choose the right words so that we continued to play in our style. We remained focused in the second half of the match and managed to convert our advantage into five goals scored.
– After the match, an interesting moment caught the cameras’ attention: you literally walked the entire field from goal to goal on your knees. What kind of ritual is this?
– This is my promise to God. I promised to make a gesture of gratitude when I manage to open the scoring record in the league. The gesture you saw, me crawling on my knees across the field.
– Have you done anything like that before?
– No. The thing is, I was going through a somewhat unpleasant stage, and it was really important for me to score a double and break that negative streak. That is why I thanked God for fulfilling this promise.
– What will you do if you score a hat-trick?
– First of all, I hope for God’s blessing and help. I will have to think about it. When I manage to score a hat-trick, you will see everything for yourself.
