The result is satisfactory for us. We played a draw and went further. Our estimate for the game is satisfactory. We had good chances to score but we were not able to convert them. Football players tried hard but they were not precise enough at the closing stage, not only because of the bad quality of the field but also because of the lack of composure.

Did “Sheriff” surprise you somehow today?
No, we studied our rival well. “Sheriff” has good attacking players. They also play safely in the defense. For example, in the last game in London “Sheriff” did not let “Tottenham” create many dangerous moments. Today “Sheriff” also played well in the attack.

Did you celebrate getting into the round of 32 in the dressing room?
There was no euphoria. We were just glad.
