Mislav Karoglan: «We have a team in the forefront»
FC “Sheriff” head coach, Mislav Karoglan, after the match of 1/8 Moldovan-Moldecom Cup against FC “Barça” Ungheni (9:0).
- “Easy” victory and was it really such a victory?
- I don't look at it that way. I think there are certain things that we definitely could have done better, especially in the first half. I also want to congratulate Barça, who came and played fair, didn't play rough. Also, I want to congratulate them for this experience they got playing against FC Sheriff. We did our job in terms of the result. At the same time, we know that we have to do some things on the field better. The second part will be very hard. We understand that we do not have the right to lose matches, we do not have the right to be soft, to be patient, because we will not always attack. I want to congratulate my players, who took the match with all seriousness. Now the Championship games are waiting for us.
- How did the newcomers of the team show themselves?
- I do not consider them individually. We are working on making each of them individually even better. However, we have a team in the foreground, and there are no those who were here before or who have come now. There are players who make up the whole. They all have to do their job together.
- Artem Dijinari played in the starting lineup. What qualities allowed him to play from the first minutes?
- He knows how to play soccer properly. But he needs to get stronger and improve his physical qualities. In terms of intelligence, in terms of decision-making, he is at the top. Definitely a first-team and Super League player. Now he needs to gain experience and gain size. As a footballer he is very good.
