After the UCL victory over Real Madrid, Luis Castro's men switched back to the domestic league
In Kyiv on Saturday, December 5th, the Orange-and-Blacks will host this season’s top-flight debutants Minaj coached by the former Shakhtar player Vasyl Kobin.
Minus Moraes, plus Viunnyk and Dentinho
Winter has come formally now - the temperature in Kyiv is balancing around zero degrees Celsius. Shakhtar are preparing for their last home match in 2020 on a field of the Sviatoshyn sports complex.
On December 3rd, the team's training session lasted ninety minutes: those who played against Real Madrid have had a warm-up and left for a recovery session to the fitness room, with the rest of players focusing on ball exercises, tactic and a small-sided game.
Junior Moraes is injured - as we reported yesterday, he will miss games within the next two weeks. Meanwhile, Bohdan Viunnyk has already joined the general group. Dentinho also trained with the team after suffering a minor injury in the game against Real Madrid. Sergii Kryvtsov and David Khocholava have been training individually.
The Shakhtar vs Minaj match kicks off at 17:00 at the NSC Olimpiyskiy on December 5th.
