The ex-goalkeeper of the national team of Ukraine called the problem of the current Shakhtar

Former goalkeeper of Shakhtar Donetsk and the national team of Ukraine Yuriy Wirt expressed an opinion about why Marino Pushych’s wards are currently not impressive, occupying the 7th place in the UPL standings, although in their last match in Lviv they defeated “Karpaty” with a score of 5:2.

“In the match against Carpathians, Shakhtar made a lot of mistakes in defense. Especially when Podlepenets scored for them after a corner kick: Evgeny hit from the goalkeeper’s area and no one took care of him. The defensive team is not improving.

There are problems in the defense – that’s obvious. However, the claims and huge questions before the start of the Champions League are not only for Konoply and Bondar, but for all players. The team in general does not improve in defense.

Shakhtar’s rivals in the Ukrainian Premier League somehow create chances at their goal very easily. I don’t even remember the last time the Miners conceded four goals in the indoor arena, as it was against Alexandria,” Wirt explained.

Earlier, Wirth named Shakhtar players who failed to start the season in the UPL.
