Oleksandr Usyk, world heavyweight boxing champion, commented on the semifinals match of the Ukrainian Cup between "Polissya" and "Shakhtar".

"I think 'Polissya' is already dreaming of 'Shakhtar'. But 'Shakhtar' is a very strong team, and the fact that we beat them three times means nothing. We need to win, we need to come out well, with a good mood, with a winning mindset, and play very well. Once again, I repeat: 'Shakhtar' is a very strong team"

Usyk signed a contract with "Polissya" in 2023, but has not yet played for the club in official matches.

The Referees' Committee of UAF explained the situation with the disallowed goal of FC "Shakhtar" in the match of the 25th round of the Ukrainian Premier League against FC "Kolos".

"The disallowed goal occurred due to a violation of the Rules of the Game – the 'offside' position of a player of FC 'Shakhtar'. According to the rules, it is mandatory to check the initial phase of attacking actions for each scored goal. In this episode, interference in the play by player 'Shakhtar' No. 6, who was in an 'offside' position, was detected, after which the ball was scored into the net of FC 'Kolos'. Technical issues were needed to confirm the decision to cancel the goal, but this time was compensated at the end of the match"
