Izaki Silva commented on Shakhtar's victory over LNZ in the 7th round of the Ukrainian Premier League. The Brazilian scored the Donetsk team's third goal in the match and helped the team win convincingly with a score of 3:0. "Every match is important for us. The previous meetings with this opponent did not end with a positive result for us. That's why we wanted to break the streak that was unpleasant for us. I'm very happy that I managed to score and the team's victory in general," said Silva. Separately, the midfielder spoke about the team's desire to give a gift to Shakhtar President Rinat Akhmetov, who is celebrating his 60th birthday on September 21. "We wanted to give a gift to our president," Izaki added. For Shakhtar, this victory was the sixth in seven starting rounds of the championship. The Arda Turan team scored 18 points and continues to be among the leaders of the tournament table.
