An assist from Kevin and a goal from 17-year-old Tsukanov helped Shakhtar beat Pyunik in sparring

Miners’ first test match in Turkey

Miner won Pyunik in the first control match at the training camp in Turkey – 2:0.

The miners took the lead in the 14th minute: Alexander Zubkov crossed the pass from Brazilian newcomer Kevin. Let us remind you that the winger signed a 5-year contract with Shakhtar.

Towards the end of the meeting, 17-year-old midfielder Viktor Tsukanov increased Shakhtar’s advantage. Egishe Melikyan’s team left the field without scoring goals.

19-year-old Georgian defender Luka Latsabidze also received playing time for Shakhtar. He came on as a substitute in the second half.

Yesterday, Shakhtar planned to spar with Ludogorets, but the match was canceled due to weather conditions.

Let us remind you that Shakhtar arrived in Turkey on January 14. In total, the Miners planned six control matches at the training camp.

Marino Pusic’s team will play in the 1/16 of the Europa League, where its opponent will be Marseille. In the Ukrainian Championship, the Miners are in fourth place, three points behind the leaders, but with two matches in hand.
