Volodymyr Sadokha: "Rakytsky took out 5 thousand dollars and said: "This is for you"

Former "Karpat" and "Rukha" midfielder Volodymyr Sadokha told an interesting story from the life of Shakhtar Donetsk.

— Rakitsky was an example for me. He was once given to play for a double. We played against Luhansk "Zorya", two points behind them, and it was a home match and we had to win without fail. They "sat" on their own goal the whole match, could not score and played 0:0. Everyone was upset after the game, and Rakitsky says, "Guys, don't be upset." He takes out five thousand dollars, puts it on the table and says: "This is your bonus for this match, you deserve it." The next day Yaroslav came and collected our boots, and in return brought three boxes of new ones. It was a good deed, Volodymyr said.
