While the football season is on hiatus, we continue bringing you the most interesting particulars of Shakhtar games

We want to remind you that the 2020/21 season started for the Miners immediately after the previous one without any break and is atypical due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At a certain point, a whole group of footballers could not train and take part in matches.

Minutes

Dodo is the leader in terms of game time: the right-back spent a total of 1,515 minutes on the pitch (excluding stoppage time). Mykola Matviienko played for 1,305 minutes, Tete for 1,196, Marlos for 1,183, Anatolii Trubin for 1,170. The top ten also includes Valerii Bondar (1,110), Taison (1,086), Manor Solomon (966), Taras Stepanenko (947) and Alan Patrick (941), with the rest of players having less than 900 minutes.

Heorhii Sudakov was fielded as a substitute vs Real Madrid and Vorskla, he also appeared in the starting lineup vs Mariupol and scored a goal. Viunnyk provided an assist back then. Bohdan, in addition to his appearances vs Real Madrid and Mariupol, appeared in the meeting vs Minaj.
 
Substitutions

In general, Fernando was fielded as a substitute more often than others this season - 9 times. In the course of the game, Solomon was fielded on eight occasions, Alan Patrick on seven; and Taras Stepanenko, Viktor Kovalenko, and Tete on six each. However, Marlos and Marcos Antonio left the field more often than others before the final whistle (11 times each). Patrick was replaced on seven occasions, Taison and Moraes on six occasions each.
