Jo Santos: Thanks God I could survive this hard period
FC Sheriff forward, Jo Santos, got back to the pitch after a-year-break and scored twice to FC Saxan.
- Welcome back. How was the match with Saxan?
- Thank you for congratulations. The team played to their maximum. We did everything we could. Therefore we scored many goals. I want to say a special thank you to Saxan players who played like men till the end, without looking at the score. The opponent deserves respect.
- Two scored goals, how do you estimate the time spent on the pitch?
- I am happy that I returned and could immediately help the team. It is the new start of the career for me. Thanks God that I could survive this hard period in my life.
- Your previous return caused relapse. Can you say that this will not happen again?
- Now I am 100% sure the story will not happen again. In the first time I was too quick to take the field and was weak. Lately I have had intense physiotherapy with coaches and doctors. Do not worry, everything will be fine.
- You got back when there was fight for the first place. Can you help the team?
- I believe I can help the team. I feel power and the opportunity to play on high level. The rest depends on the coach, only he decides when he needs my help. As for me, I am always ready to take the field.
- Tomorrow is the match with Petrocub in semifinal of the Cup. What is more important for you as a player, to win the championship or the cup?
- The team must win any tournament we play in. We always set maximum goals. The interests of the team are the highest for me. But if you set the question like this, I would prefer winning the championship for the second time.
