Veaceslav Semenov: “It was going to be a penalty but awkward double booking changed everything”
- It was a true match of the Cup which held in suspense till the last minutes. In the first half FC Sheriff looked better, in the second one we sped up in the attack and had an advantage. Losing by the score 2:0, we could score two goals. Awkward double booking changed everything. But in general, my congratulations to FC Sheriff.
It seemed to me that it was continuation of the match in Orhei. You were probably also satisfied with the draw but as soon as you conceded a goal, there were substitutions and changes, the scheme of play was more attacking. Why did it happen?
We did not have it with FC Milsami, we took the field with two forwards. We wanted to attack and score goals. We would not be satisfied with the draw. But unfortunately it did not happen at that time. Today it was a bit different. We started making substitutions. There were a few variants and we used two of those. But that double booking changed everything. There were no substitutions available and Gaiduckevic got seriously injured. We lost two decisive matches of the season.
Did your substitutions strengthen the game or was a coaching staff wrong about the first eleven?
They strengthened the game.
You lost two important matches. Did you lack stability or were you unlucky?
We lacked both, luck as well. Leuka had his moment on the last minute when he shot higher from five meters. How can you call it? Today the unnecessary double booking affected the result of the match. It was going to be a penalty. But we don’t have claims to the team.
