The match was hard and beautiful. Two strong teams played today. The team that possessed the ball more often won the game. There were not many opportunities to score in the first half but in the beginning of the second half “Sheriff” score from the set piece. We had a bit different plan for the game. We wanted the score to be 0:0 till the middle of the second half and then attack with great efforts. After failing to make a save it was difficult for us to score a goal. Frankly speaking, “Sheriff” is the strongest team in the championship in their composition. We had three new players in today’s match who do not have enough experience so far. We try to be one of the leading teams in the championship. We need to work hard for that.

Your players shot from the distance very often. Was it your directive?
We knew it would be hard for “Sheriff” to score a goal from the penalty area, which is why we hoped for distant shots.

It seems that physical condition of “Milsami” is not up to the mark…
Five key players of our team could not take part in the game because of different reasons, therefore we lacked a bit in a physical way.

When is Gheorghe Boghiu’s return expected?
Probably next Sunday. He is training but we did not want to take risks today.
