Come back with a victory
The youth team of FC Sheriff won Albanian Shkendija in the away match and took the first step towards the next round of the tournament.
Our boys dominated on the field from the first minute, held the ball for a long time and created dangerous moments at the opponent's goal. Twice in the first half, the ball got to the upper 90 of the home team. And then unexpected goal happened in our goal. A harmless free kick on the right side, the pass turned out to be addressless, but the ball whisk into the far corner.
To the credit of the wards of Shota Makharadze, Sheriff did not depart from the planned, methodically shook the defense of Shkendiоa. And very quickly recouped. After a pass from the standard, Ivan Danilov sent the ball by his head into the goal. At the end of the half, Ivan repeated his header, but already hit another corner.
About the harmony of our team’s defense says the fact that for the entire match Mihai Choban only once seriously entered the game.
A confident and well-deserved victory that allows us to look to the future with optimism. The second leg is scheduled for October 23.
