Shota Makharadze: "It'll be difficult in the second leg, for sure"
Sheriff Football Academy head coach Shota Makharadze about the match with FC Sondal:
- A very interesting game turned out. These are our observations as fans and journalists. Where are your emotions?
- We are used to it. This is not news for us. To be honest, today we really wanted to give a minimum of a fight and a maximum of what we did. At the same time, we know and are aware that a difficult game awaits us there. Today we were glad for a couple of minutes, talked, made plans. How, where and when.
- Today very young football players scored or made assists. They are only 17 years old, but they are in the Under-19 team and make a noise in Europe. How do you comment?
- We do not look in the passport. Who was ready specifically for today's game, he entered the field. We made one substitution, instead of Gliga, Koval played. He went out and scored. Then we released Gliga and he also scored. Young people improve, and we are only happy about it. All of them are team players for us. So it was, it will remain so.
- Have you already decided how you will play in Norway?
- There is a high probability that we will play on an artificial field, as is a high probability that it will be very cold. It will be difficult for sure. They, too, will draw the right conclusions and will play in a completely different way. We watched their first game against Honka. They played very hard. We disassembled the game and it was justified. We had information, we were armed, and we know how to play with them.
- Today it was possible to completely resolve the issue, if not for the goalkeeper of the opponent?
- If everything flies, probably it would be uninteresting. With God's help, we scored two goals. FC Sheriff Press Office
