Shakhtar have told Tribuna.com that due to the closure of the Hamburg airport due to a terrorist threat, the team will fly to the Champions League match against Barcelona via Bremen or Hannover.
There is no final decision on a specific city yet, but it will probably not be a direct flight to Hamburg. Today, Shakhtar are travelling to Poland by bus from Vynnyky.
"Shakhtar are due to play Barcelona on Tuesday, 7 November. The match starts at 19.45.
It was reported that an unidentified man drove a car onto the runway, breaking down the security gate, firing several shots in the air and throwing several Molotov cocktails. The hostage was his 4-year-old daughter.
Police have warned that the airport will return to normal operations only when the situation is resolved.
