Head coach of FC Sheriff, Zoran Zekic, abbout the second leg of the Moldova Cup semi-final:

 

- What I can tell you. It happens in football, missed in the last minutes. I am pleased how the team played today, how they moved on the field. The players had a great desire. I think we lost in the first match. In the first part we played well, but had to be postponed, and on the second day everything was bad. Hence the result.

 

- What question would you ask yourself?

- Now, I think I answered this question. It concerns what happened in the first match, which we had to play twice. So you can play in such way, neither for the team nor for the club. I really want this to not happen again. I repeat, today I saw a lot of good in the game. I am sure that with each game we will have better and better. It will turn out. Football must be played till the final whistle. The team works a lot, runs a lot, but in the end you miss such a ball. You can be punished in any situation. Not only here.

 

- Don't you regret fielding Wilson? It was he who committed the fatal foul ...

- This is a difficult question. I thought to field another defender. But then we would play very low, and would get a lot of pressure on the defenders. I needed a man who would keep the ball in front, moving a lot. We knew that they would play in long passes.

 

- How to set to the Championship now?

- I’m always set up, I always think and set up my team only for victory. It does not always work. My players should know that they are playing for Sheriff, that there is pressure on the result. You have to play every game well and win. You need to prepare for this every day. Such we will have every game in the Championship. 10 football players will play against us in defense, they will fight and wait for their chance, their moments, standards. Today, on two standards, we played very badly. Therefore, we missed.
