Giorgi Chiabrishvili: The lots were drawn and we're paired with who they chose - we will prepare with maximum mobilization

A few minutes ago, the draw for the first qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League ended at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon. The opponent of Locomotive will be the Romanian club - CS Universitatea Craiova.

 

 

The head coach of Tbilisians - Giorgi Chiabrishvili evaluates the results of the draw:

 

 

"Firstly, I would say that we did not have any expectations of any particular team and we treated all potential opponents equally. The choice is already made. The strength of our opponent is also indicated by the fact that this team is in the second place in the Romanian championship. The players of the Romanian and Albanian national teams play in their ranks. They also have a pretty good goalkeeper who played for the Italian youth teams.

 

 

Today, we are preparing for a serious match with Dila Gori and now we are concentrating only on that. After that, there is a game with Samtredia. After these matches, we will analyze everything well, we will see Craiova’s games and we will prepare with maximum mobilization.

 

 

Given this, I don’t consider playing at home to be advantageous, as the match will take place without spectators. At the same time, we do not play in our home arena and it will be the same match for us on the neutral field as for our opponent”-  said Chiabrishvili.
