Dnipro-1 Commercial Director Viacheslav Fridman told why he had previously stated that Shakhtar were by far the strongest in the UPL
"I'm not lying. They are stronger in all components. Starting with top managers Palkin and Srna. These are people with vast experience of fighting in the spring part of the championship. They know how to solve issues.
They can include, for example, incentives for teams playing against us. Not specifically against Dnipro-1, but against the teams that will be in the fight against Shakhtar. There are many issues.
Strong managers, Palkin and Srna. And the team there is broken down in such a way that players who would be the basis players in other teams are not included in the squad," Friedman said on UPL.TV.
