The president of "Inhulets", Oleksandr Povoroznyuk, proposed to reduce the UPL to eight teams.
"I propose to have only 8 teams so that the level is higher. "Dynamo", "Shakhtar", "Polissia", "Oleksandriia". And to create another league for others. So that every match is like "Dynamo" - "Shakhtar". Only then will there be some progress in football. We have nothing right now.
Just look — "Kudrivka" beats "Vorskla", which played in European competitions. "Inhulets" from the village won the Ukrainian Cup among amateurs. Then they reached the final of the Ukrainian Cup, winning against "Mariupol", "Karpaty", "Zoria", all from the higher league. We only lost to "Shakhtar" in the final. Do you understand where football is going?" — Povoroznyuk is quoted by the Telegram channel FootballHub.
