Ukrainian commentator Serhiy Lukianenko shared his thoughts on the performance of Shakhtar midfielder Heorhii Sudakov in the final match of the Ukrainian Cup against Dynamo.

We understand that ‘Napoli’, if the player gets injured more seriously, might reconsider whether they need this transfer. This was a risk from Pushich.
Sudakov didn’t impress me in the match against ‘Dynamo’. However, Shakhtar had two accurate shots on the opponent’s goal, and Sudakov was involved in both. It cannot be said that he failed the game, but Heorhii’s start is a demonstration of Pushich’s fear. I will put all the best players, even if they are not 100% ready,” Lukianenko is quoted by the Telegram channel “Vzbіrnа”.
