Famous commentator Ihor Tsyhanyk made a prediction for the 1/8 finals of the Ukrainian Cup match between Shakhtar and Zorya.
— Shakhtar is gradually improving, and it is finally noticeable that the team is adding from game to game. They gave Arsenal a good fight in London, and in the "classic" they were close to victory.
Zorya has finally broken its unsuccessful streak by defeating Lviv (2:0). But it will be very difficult against the miners; the Luhansk team has little chance to advance further. Shakhtar needs this victory; the team wants to prove to all critics that they are capable of more. I think the current Cup holder of Ukraine will win 2:1," said Tsyhanyk.
