Viktor Kumykov, Senior coach of Karaganda city’s FC Shakhter of Kazakhstan, was quite reserved when commenting the success of his team in the first play-off leg against Scottish Celtic, Vesti.kz reports. “The game was very difficult. We wanted to prove ourselves that we can score goals even in the games with such strong opponents. There is nothing about such teams that one should be afraid of. Today we have proven that we are not an easy-to-win team. This will give us boost of confidence. In some episodes we even looked better than the opponent. The match was very successful for us. But I don’t think that our chances of victory are much higher that theirs. We still have to play in Glasgow and this will not be an easy game. They remain the favorites and we have only increased on chances a little bit. I am happy with the current result and I don't regret the missed goal opportunities,” Kumykov said. Earlier Tengrinews.kz English reported that Shakhter defeated Celtic 2:0 in Astana yesterday. The second leg will be held in Celtic Park stadium in Glasgow on August 29.
