Former player of the national team of Ukraine and Shakhtar, Volodymyr Mykytyn assessed the chances of the "miners" to achieve a positive result today in the next match of the group stage of the Champions League against the London Arsenal players.
Volodymyr Mykytyn— They are minimal. Both teams follow a similar playing style, but the "gunners" have significantly higher-level players. Still, as they say, hope dies last, especially since there have been instances in Shakhtar's history in the Champions League when they unexpectedly "shone." Remember the victories over Real, Leipzig. I fully understand that the current class of Shakhtar is noticeably lower, but there are pleasant exceptions.
What if this time in London, the puzzles do come together? But for that to happen, Shakhtar needs to play perfectly today: solid in defense, creative in midfield, and successful in converting the few goal-scoring opportunities they will create near the hosts' goal," said the expert.
