Riccardo Orsolini’s comments on Bologna-Shakhtar Donetsk

Riccardo Orsolini’s comments after the match: “Tonight was emotional: we were nervous at the start because for me and many teammates, it was our debut in the Champions League. But then the match started and we tried to play our game. We knew that Shakhatar, a technical and very organized opponent, would try to get us in trouble. A penalty came immediately, which would have landed us in trouble, but Lukasz was good at stopping it. We were dangerous especially at the beginning of the second half, creating many chances and we could have gone ahead. We are happy with the performance and attitude; even the coach complimented us. It’s a point earned; we now head to Monza maybe with an eye on Anfield, which will be a legendary away match for us. But let’s think match by match- we want to get our first win of the season.”
