Today Sheriff in Chisinau secured the championship title and the game was really very good. As the head coach said after the match, people who came today to the stadium, must have liked the match. Really, it was spectacular, with high speeds, a lot of battles on every part of the pitch. But let us get closer to the point.
Sheriff took advantage from the very beginning of the game and managed to score a quick goal from a standard position - Lisa, who began this game in the starting lineup, delivered a good corner and the ball in the penalty box came to Markovski, who didn't miss his opportunity. For some time the hosts, it seemed, were astonished, but then they began to try to score an equalizer but their shots lacked preciseness. In the middle of the first half Sheriff managed to score another goal - Lisa was the scorer - he was just in time from the left side of the penalty box, recieved the ball and skillfully sent it into the net without any pressure. If there have been any doubt about the outcome of the match, the second goal was decisive. But the hosts thought differently - they fought until the end and had a good second half. To be honest Sheriff could score the third goal, whose author should have been Pesic, who got the pass into the penalty box and just missed the net. Thus Sheriff secured another championship title with two match days left.


Here is what the footballers said after the match:
Veaceslav Lisa: "We are full of positive emotions now and we are very glad. It is great to become champions in the game with such opponent. It was a hard second half for us, dismissal and we fought till the end. I tried to do my best and gave 100% commitment."

Benjamen Balima: "It haven't been a simple match for us. I played against Zimbru a lot and I know that it is a tough team, but today we have shown a real game of champions."
