Famous Ukrainian coach Sergiy Puchkov shared his expectations for the final of the Ukrainian Cup "Shakhtar" — "Dynamo".
Sergiy Puchkov— I think it will be a very serious game. First of all, it is very much needed by the "miners". A victory in it will provide the opportunity to participate in the Europa League. Given that in the championship Dynamo players can be considered five minutes away from winning gold medals, the "miners" with their potential third place finish could only have the Conference League without a cup triumph. That is why "Shakhtar" will have more motivation for this game than "Dynamo", which is already one foot in the Champions League.
So I expect a tense confrontation, in which the level of struggle will be quite high. The main thing is that the participants in the main Ukrainian derby do not cross the limits and do not forget about Fair play," the expert reminded.
