Roberto Bordin: The guys fought for each other
FC Sheriff head coach Roberto Bordin about the match against Milsami and coming up battle for the Cup:
Good evening. Today, it has been a tough game where both teams wanted to win. That's why there was so much fight. I congratulate my players. They made lots of efforts, fought for every chance and helped each other a lot. We managed to score by the end of the game due to Badibanga's help. The opponents also had their moments. Overall, I'm satisfied with how the team played.
What factor played a key role in achieving the victory?
There were several, but the most important was that all the players sacrificed themselves, fought for the space. I can say that they fought for each other. We had a very well-organized opponents who showed a compact play and closed free zones. We had been awaiting for a tough game. Milsami have shown they are a good team. Of course, the quality of the pitch, that helped neither us nor the opponent, also played its role. The pitch condition was not very good.
The game for the Cup is ahead. How do you see it?
We have time to return into shape and prepare for this game well. It's a very important game. Not only for us, I think, but for Milsami as well. Probably, we will have some line-up changes. We have such an opportunity. Maybe some guys will take rest.
There were some incidents after the game. Could you comment on it?
Today we played away. But I think they are not our matter. We came to play football and what was going on around the stadium is non of our business.
