Luiz Adriano: I am missing Donetsk so much
After the meeting in Salvador, Shakhtar forward gave an interview to the club press office.
- The first game this year - and you scored at once. Did you hone your skill throughout the vacation?
- I think it's all due to our training in Rio de Janeiro. We got well prepared and I managed to score against the opponents. I am very happy.
- Can today’s atmosphere in the stadium be compared with the atmosphere in the Ukrainian arenas?
- In principle, they are similar. Because Brazilians supported their team just as Ukrainians had rooted for us at home. It is very good for any player.
- Do you think Ukrainian fans should borrow something from Brazilian ones?
- I would like to address our fans: just know that we are always with you. We prepare to start the league season well and to decently show ourselves both in it and in the Champions League. We are always with you, we play for you! I am missing Donetsk so much.
- Mister named Fred and Alex Teixeira the Men of the Match. Do you agree?
- Of course, I agree with him. He knows better. And the guys really played well today.
- And if you were to choose the best player, who would you name?
- Myself. (Laughs.) and Yaroslav Rakitskiy.
