Viktor Vatsko: "Why does the UPL management violate the Regulations to please Shakhtar?"

Well-known Ukrainian commentator Viktor Vatsko is outraged by the way the UPL violates the regulations for Shakhtar.

- The calendar has been approved. Everything is certified and signed. The match between Oleksandriya and Shakhtar is scheduled for 18:00. And suddenly the new time is 13:00. It turns out that Shakhtar was the initiator. But "by agreement of the parties". Although according to the Regulations, this could be done in just 12 days.

In this case, the European Cups are out of the question. There is no force majeure either. Unless we consider force majeure to be the fact that Shakhtar does not want to spend the night in Oleksandriia because there are no normal, elite hotels there. Accordingly, that is why Shakhtar do not want to play a late match. The match ends at 8pm, if there is no alarm, and they don't get to Kyiv before the curfew, where there are luxury hotels where players can sleep for 15 million euros.

Who should be interested in this, apart from Shakhtar? And most importantly, why ... is this being decided in violation of the Regulations? Why is the UPL management violating the law signed by its own head to please Shakhtar? Why is the UPL management again giving grounds to say that it is tied to Shakhtar? Does it do what Shakhtar wants and adjusts to what Shakhtar wants?" Viktor said in the Vatsko on air programme.
