Miners got a victory in yesterday's match

Marino Pušić, Shakhtar coach, speaking after the victory over Antwerp in the Champions League.

Miners got a victory in yesterday's match after Matvienko's goal in the first half. These three points allowed Pušić's team to catch up with Porto in the standings of Group H. Now Shakhtar needs to beat the Portuguese away in the last match of the group stage to enter the Champions League playoffs.

"I am very happy, not only because of the result but because of the way we played, - says Pušić. - I am happy for all the people working so hard at the club to support us in what are very difficult circumstances. I am really happy to give people this joy.

There are many secrets but the most important part is that players have accepted my ideas and translated them on to the pitch. They have worked hard for each other, been organised and disciplined in everything they do. As I have said before: You can not attack if you do not defend.

As I always say, when you are so close to your goal you have to fight for it. We will give it our best shot and try to achieve more than we realistically expected to achieve initially."

Porto - Shakhtar match will take place on December 13.
