Henrikh Mkhitaryan: everyone tries to get in better shape for Shakhtar match

Armenia and Shakhtar Donetsk FC midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan commented on the Ukrainian club’s upcoming match against Tavriya FC.

“Definitely, it won’t be easy, especially as it will be an away match. As usual, everyone gets in better shape when it comes to facing Shakhtar, and the fact that we play once in three or four days will pose an additional challenge to us,” Shakhtar’s official website reported.

The player further noted that there won’t be any motivation problems after the Champions League match vs. Chelsea.

“We are in great mood, because it’s easier to switch from one game to another after victories. I am sure that Tavriya will fight up to the last ditch, and we’ll have to try very hard to win,” Mkhitaryan said.

Shakhtar vs. Tavriya match has been scheduled for October 27.
