The miners won the championship title in the game against Dnepr-1
President of FC Shakhtar Rinat Akhmetov appealed to the Gornyakov fans after winning the Ukrainian Championship in the 2022/23 season.
Akhmetov stressed that Shakhtar dedicates the championship title to Ukrainian defenders who are now fighting at the front against the Russian army. The full text of the statement can be read Here.
“The 14th league title is probably one of the most difficult and valuable in the history of our club. The miner won it in extremely difficult conditions, in wartime, when our country is resisting Russian aggression. Therefore, first of all, I want to thank the defenders and defenders of Ukraine. Those who sacrifice themselves for the freedom and independence of Ukraine, for us and our future. Thanks to whom the championship took place, thanks to whom we can play football, watch football, thanks to whom we can live. We dedicate today’s championship title to them, our defenders – to those who are fighting for our country right now, and to those who gave their lives for it.”
“It was an interesting championship. Difficult, exhausting, but interesting. And I am glad that Shakhtar won in a tense struggle that lasted until the last rounds. We will remember and appreciate this victory, but we will not celebrate it. Because the joy of football victories will return to us when we win our main victory – the victory of Ukraine over the enemy, when we liberate all our cities and return peace to our land.
Shakhtar became the champion of Ukraine ahead of schedule in the 2022/23 season. The triumph for the team of Igor Jovicevich was brought by the victory over the direct competitor of SC Dnipro-1 (3:0). The Pitmen won the league title for the 14th time in the club’s history.
In the final round of the season, Shakhtar will play Vorskla on June 4.
