Renowned football expert Oleksandr Sopko assessed the chances of "Shakhtar" in the current Ukrainian championship.
— The championship has not yet ended, but the gap from "Dynamo" is quite large. One can throw all efforts into catching up with the Kyiv team, or one can already start thinking about the next season and gradually begin to experiment, to create a more quality and open competition. Will the coaching staff go for this? I am not sure, – says Oleksandr Oleksandrovych.
