Shakhtar’s head coach, Igor Jovicevich summed up the result of today’s match against Alexandria (1:1) in the 25th round of the UPL.
Oleksandriya and Shakhtar signed a world match in the match of the 25th round of the UPL. The teams traded goals between Nikolai Mikhailenko and Kevin Kelsey in each half.
Jovićević believes that today his charges cannot withstand the pressure.
“Not satisfied with the results. No complaints about the game. There are also moments, but something does not go. I think this is due to psychological pressure, because now the price of each mistake is increasing. You think there is no time, and you start rushing with the last shot, the last pass. It is necessary to convince the team, not to create a tragedy after such a decision,” added the expert.
Shakhtar after the match with Oleksandriya remains the leader of the UPL, three points ahead of Dnipro-1, while the sports club has a game in hand. On May 13, Jovičević’s team will face Ingulets.
