Yesterday the Georgia national football team held a friendly match against Ukraine in Linz (Austria) and lost 1:2. Mate Vatsadze scored the only goal of Georgia after Levan Kenia’s assist.
“World Sport” contacted Kenia and talked about yesterday’s match. According to Kenia, the national team has progress and has a chance against Poland.
- What is the situation in the national team after the match against Ukraine and before the match against Poland?
- There is a normal situation. Unfortunately, we lost to Ukraine but in my opinion, we did not deserve failure in this match.
- How would you summarize yesterday’s match?
- In my opinion, the Georgia national team played well. We played stably in the first half. We could not have won in the second half. Unfortunately, when the score was 0:0, we could not use a good moment and then, we were scored a goal. However, we managed to score a goal and I think it is very important.
- How would you summarize meeting of the national team in March and now?
- We did not have time in March. Now we are together for a week and I think we have a progress.
- On June 13 you will play Poland. Does Georgia have a chance against Poland?
- Of course, we have a chance. We can achieve success with team play.
- Are you ready to play 90 minutes?
- Yes, I am.
- You strengthened offence against Ukraine and you earned an assist…
- I am very happy to be back in the national team. I am always trying to help the team on the field.
- How do you think “Slavia” has a contribution in it?
- Of course, it does. The club gave me a lot in this short period.
- It is transfer time now. Do you have suggestions from other clubs?
- No, I do not think about it yet.
- So, you will spend the next season in Czech Republic…
- Let us see, I have one more year with “Slavia”.
