Head coach of "Minaya" Zeljko Ljubenovic told why the away match of his team against Cherkasy LNZ in the 17th round of the championship of Ukraine was not held (this meeting was to be held on 9 December, but it was eventually postponed to the spring part of the championship).
"We were approached with a request to postpone the game on another date, because in Cherkassy club can not prepare the field for its holding. At first, the place for the match LNZ found - it is the stadium named after Bannikov in Kiev. However, then they were denied the arena and it turned out that they were left without a pitch. Therefore, we went to LNZ in favour and agreed to postpone the meeting to the spring part of the championship," UA-Football quoted Lubenovic as saying.
