Juan Ferrando: “For us it is important to continue our performance in Europa League”
The result 2:1 – is it a good result for our team?
It is not very good that “Anji” won the match in Tromsø. It reduces our chances to go out of the group. For me it is very important to win the upcoming matches with “Anji” and “Tromsø”. I know that defeat cannot be a good result. But you should not forget that we played with “Tottenham” by their supporters. “Tottenham” can win this Europa League. It makes us glad that we scored a goal to “Spurs”, especially at the away match. Nor “Anji” or “Tromsø” could score to Londoners.
Can the supporters be proud of how “Sheriff” performed in two games with “Tottenham”?
I am very glad that people got positive emotions and satisfaction from our games with “Tottenham”. I noticed people saying more often: “This is “Sheriff” from Tiraspol, this is my team”. It is good that people believe in our club, our team and believe that we can play in Europa League.
You talked to Andre Villas-Boas before the game. What did you talk about?
We remembered the time when he worked as Jose Mourinho’s assistant in “Porto” and I was in “Barcelona”. We talked about English Premier League. We knew each other before our matches in Europa League. We met in Tiraspol, he remembered me. This coach is very intelligent. He makes decisions quickly and makes correctives on the field.
As for today’s game. It seemed that our flanks worked not very well, especially in the attack…
I think the nerve of the game came into play. There were many supporters. I compare this game with our games in the Champions League and I see that the team got really better. For us it is important to continue our performance in Europa League, get more experience and I think we will be able to fight with big clubs in the next Champions League season.
What did you feel when “Sheriff” scored to “Tottenham”?
I was glad but it was very bad that by that moment we conceded two goals already.
