Mario Fernandes: A good result
— Of course, we wanted to win, but the draw is also a good result. We knew who we're playing, Manchester United is a very strong team with good players. It's difficult to play against them. However, we wanted to win at home, in front of our fans.
— How would you describe the episode in which you gained penalty for our team?
— Basically the whole team participated in what has been a typical attack for us. Vasily Berezutskiy made a great pass, I handled the ball and tried to tried to squeeze through defenders, but one of them played handball.
— Why we didn’t manage to save the sheet clean?
— Manchester had the better possession. They didn’t have serious chances except the one when they scored. Maybe we played too close to our box. All in all we played well in the defense today.
— Wolfsburg won in the match against PSV — 2:0. How would you rate our chances of advancing to Champions League play-off?
— It’s all open. The next match will be against Manchester United at their stadium. We’ll try to gain some points there. After that we’ll host Wolfsburg and we’ll do our best to win the game. We’re aiming to progress to the next round.
