Stjepan Tomas: “There was no concentration today. That's my fault"
Head coach of FC Sheriff Stjepan Tomas about the match against FC Petrocub
- According to the match. This scheme, with 3 central ones, is a long shot of the ball. Why was it so decided? It seems that you did not succeed today?
- Yes, it did not work, it's a pity. Congratulations to Petrocub, they wanted to win more. We had practically no chances in the first half. It’s impossible, and it’s a pity that we lost today. I think it's a bad atmosphere right now before the game against Manchester United. I will talk to the players about it. It seems they were already thinking about the match in Manchester, there was no concentration. That's my fault.
- Can you praise the opponent, who played very well today?
- Yes, they played very organized, played well in defense. If you don’t immediately start concentrated, don’t take your opponent seriously, there is no desire, then it happens like in the first half. We missed a goal in the last seconds of the 45th minute. I don't know if it was offside or not. We have to react, in the second half, to score and win. Didn't work out today.
- You were already at Old Trafford, do you think Ronaldo will play against you?
- I think that Ronaldo will play and he will train with the team tomorrow. We have to prepare ourselves for the game.
