- How emotionally important was it to hear the support of the fans here in Hamburg?
- The support has been insane. Thanks to all the fans who believed in us.
- Can Shakhtar compete for the playoffs of the Champions League?
- Yes, of course, now we will fight for a place in the 1/8 finals of the Champions League. We do not consider the third place in the group and will prove it on the pitch.
