Famous Ukrainian coach Yuriy Virt spoke about Shakhtar's 0-3 Champions League match against Atalanta and the fate of Donetsk's Marino Pušić.

- "Shakhtar lost the fight and the match in general. Any pass was dangerous, and Riznyk was shot after them. I recall Pushic's post-match press conference after the Karpaty-Shakhtar game, when Lviv scored after a set piece, where he said: "We have been working on standards at our goal for a whole week, and we still conceded."

And again, the same mistake is repeated. After standards and set pieces, they easily give the ball away and allow shots on goal without resistance. No wonder Riznyk emotionally appealed to the defenders after the second goal. Only the club's president Rinat Akhmetov knows whether to give Pushich credit or not. But it is obvious that Shakhtar's performance does not make the fans optimistic. So far, there is neither a game nor a result," the expert said.
