Zoran Zekic: "We gave our rival few chances to score a ball"
Head coach of FC Sheriff Zoran Zekic about the first qualifying match of the Europa League against Albanian Partizani:
- Good evening. First, I want to congratulate my team on this victory. We had a very, very difficult game in difficult weather conditions. My team managed to score one goal today. Had a few more chances to score. It did not work, but this is football. We had a good first half that allowed us to win today.
- Do you think that the issue of FC Sheriff qualification to the next round has already been solved?
- This is only the first match. Teams have a 50/50 odds. We still have one game.
- Has Partizani surprised you with something?
- I think no. Partizani played as we expected. In the first half, we played very well. Created enough chances for a goal. While there is a problem with the completion of scoring chances. Maybe in these moments my team lacked concentration.
- Is that what you expected from your opponent?
- Yes, Partizani played football, which we knew about yesterday. They have an Italian coach, the team is well prepared tactically. The rival is well organized in defense, well attacked. But we gave our rival few chances to score a ball to us.
