Shakhtar U19 midfielder Oleksandr Chornenkyi commented on the victory over Obolon U19 and shared his expectations for the final matches of the season
– We were focused on winning as the emotions were not very positive after the match against Poltava U19. We drew the right conclusions and then showed a good performance and beat Obolon U19.
– You are getting more playing time towards the end of the season and started the match against Obolon U19. What does it mean for you?
– I’m very grateful to the coaches for giving me a chance to prove myself. I was waiting for this opportunity and tried to show my qualities in training. Thanks to that, I now get the chance to show myself in matches as well. More experienced players are helping me, especially Bundash, who supports and motivates me before every game.
– Only two matches remain until the end of the season. What are your expectations for them?
– Being in the starting line-up has given me more confidence, so we are approaching the next matches only with the aim of winning to earn the gold medals.
