DENİS SOKOLOVSKİ: "WE ALL HAVE THE SAME IDEA ABOUT THE NEXT MATCH: “VICTORY!”

This time our guest is "Garabagh"’s Ukrainian legionary Denis Sokolovki who scored two goals in the last match for Cup. -I was born in 1979 March 26th in Donetsk. I am a graduate of “Shakhtyor” Football school. But I started my career in “Metallurq”. After two years I left for the foreign country. In 2000 I signed a contract with “Panionis” club and played there for 18b months. In 2001 I passed to “Poqon” Poland club. My serious injury was a reason for a short time I spent there. I was 6 months out of the football. Then again returned to the Ukraine signed contract with “Vorskla. In the season of 2002-2003 I played in “Obolon”. My last club is “Krivbass”. -For sure there is a great role of your father that you are a footballer... - my father is a record-holder for number of matches (400) and scored goals (103) in “Shaktyor”. He was a half-back. I wanted to start in this club as well. For this you should have shown yourself “Shaktyor-2”. But I was a little bit unhealthy at that time. Now there are a lot of legionaries there and local Belik, Vorobey and Timoshuk. - How did it come that you came to “Garabagh”? - I didn’t know at that time but later I got to know that the administrator of “Shakhtyor” was a friend of İqor Ponomaryov. He offered me to come here. And I talked to the management of “Krivbass” and left for Antaliya. I liked it and the conditions were well for me and I decided to stay. - What were the first impressions about Azerbaijan? - I was presented with Sergey Onopkayla in “Vorskla” who played in “İnter”. He gave me first impressions about Azerbaijan and nothing bad. Later I saw that myself. Azerbaijan is a beautiful country as well as Baku. The people are very hospitable. - And “Garabagh”? - As I said, I was in Turkey. There I saw a good collective and a good coach. I get adapted to the team in several training. Since I was received hospitably I decided to stay. - You came to “Garabagh” when it was a leader for your opinion what wasn’t enough to retain it to the end? - There were a lot of teams for a leader. At the end we lost a point but they didn’t. - By the by a hard match with “Khazar-L” is coming. Are you in opinion to repeat the last match double? -I was double happy to be an owner of that double. Because that day was my niece’s birthday. I can say an only word for the coming match: Victory. -Are you pleased with today’s state of the team? -Of course I am unpleased with the table state of the team. It isn’t our step. But the mood among the personnel is high enough they respect each other and they respect discipline. I am sure that all this will influence the match.
