Inter’s victory played into the hands of Shakhtar, or Dnipro-1.
Inter Milan defeated Atalanta and guaranteed a place in next season’s Champions League group stage not only for themselves, but also for the champions of Ukraine.
The fact is that the Ukrainian Football Association finished last season on the 12th line in the ranking of UEFA coefficients. Due to the disqualification of the aggressor country, in fact, Ukraine is the 11th, so the champion of our country must start his way to the Champions League through qualification.
However, the place in the group reserved for the winner of the current Champions League has become unnecessary, as both finalists have already guaranteed themselves to enter the group, so the champion of Ukraine will go to the vacant slot.
Remember that Donetsk Shakhtar has a chance to win the UPL already on Sunday, May 28, when they will meet head-to-head with the only rival for this title – Dnipro-1.
