Shakhtar’s forward reflected on the match with Anzhi.

- Eduardo, how would you assess today’s encounter?
- It was a tough game, but we could have won it by an even larger margin. We created many scoring chances. I think it was our best mid-season game. And I think that today we have proved that we are in excellent form before the second part of the season.

- What is your take on the Anzhi performance?
- In the first half we controlled the game. The second period saw Anzhi performing better. This is a very good team which comprises a few pacey and skilful players.

- Today, you managed to make several assists. Had you been polishing such combinations prior to the game?
- No. Today, everything turned out well, but  one needs to understand that not every decent chance results in a goal. Today, it was me who provided the assists, but tomorrow it could be someone else. There are many top players in our team, so today's victory was fully deserved.
