I don't think Marseille were dangerous in the second half. In fairness they defended well but we were rewarded because we kept going. We made a little step forward but we have to be humble because we are a team that has to continue to grow. The next game at home against Marseille will be very important.
It's infuriating, especially since we had been warned two minutes before the goal with Van Persie's chance.
The penalty was obvious. Too bad the referee did not see it, it could have changed a lot of things
You have to make the most of those chances, you only get one against teams like Milan
We should be happy to have snatched a point as it was Zenit who deserved a victory
I would like to congratulate myself for working with such great players. They had an outstanding game tonight. Not so many teams create so many goal scoring chances in Donetsk
I will give everything even if my time at Lille was beautiful ... There will be no mercy on Sunday.
Frank is following the same coaching path as me. I also arrived at Ajax in December and we became champions. In my second season I didn't win the title, so neither will Frank
The last couple of years they've become more intense and there's more importance attached to them ... On Sunday it's top of the league against second top, a fantastic prospect.
They're always dangerous ... Nevertheless, we're favourites and will show that we're number one in Vienna. We have more competition within our squad. Everyone has to prove himself again and again.
The Champions League is a very difficult competition. All the teams are solid, they mark hard, but I'm sure we will qualify.
It's only the beginning but we need to win against Zenit, it's very important.
The team is strong enough to get to the semi-finals of the Champions League but first we must achieve our initial objective, which is to go through to the next stage
We'll try to find reserves to replace them ... We hope to reach our goals with the help of the young players like Douglas Costa and Alex Teixeira. They don't have enough experience but they can compensate it with their talent.
They are without [Dmytro] Chygrynskiy, Fernandinho and Jadson but that does not weaken Shakhtar
The problem Lucescu has is that he must leave some good players out. And those players who get a chance to start will be very motivated to prove their skill and class. I know Lucescu, he's an old football wolf, noble and wise, but look at our logo - there is a lion. Now we will see who is stronger: a lion or a wolf.
