In the first half of Sunday's Ukrainian league match between Shakhtar and Kryvbas there was an episode that clearly showed that coaches, players and directors of the Donets change, but Luiz Adriano's cause lives on.
In one of the episodes, Dibango broke the rules against Zubkov in his own half of the pitch. And while the latter was writhing on the turf and the former was trying to apologise, the healthy Pitmen played a free-kick and put the ball into the goal.
There were no questions for the referee - according to the letter of the rules, everything was correct: the standard was played without a whistle, which Balakin did not signal. But what about fair-play?
And another thing. For Shakhtar's opponents. If you've had the misfortune to break the rules, don't even try to apologise - it's more expensive. You can apologise to opponents from Dynamo, Polesya, Zorya or LNZ, but not to Shakhtar's opponents.
