It should be noted that both UEFA, UAF and the Swiss Football Association are ready for the match, but the ban by local authorities cancels all hopes of football organizations to hold the game.

The decision on the future of the match will be made by UEFA.

According to the results of PCR testing obtained in the morning, conducted in the location of the blue-yellow last night, four tests were positive - players Ruslan Malinovsky, Sergei Kryvtsov, Junior Moraes and physical training coach Ivan Bashtovy. Makarenko, Sobol and Riznyk are still infected, the mentioned persons are in self-isolation in their hotel room.

As for Shakhtar's three representatives - Kryvtsov, Moraes and Bashtovy - the situation is being clarified given that all three have recently contracted the coronavirus, and they have antibodies in their bodies that actually prevent recurrence at the moment. UEFA takes this fact into account and allows Kryvtsov and Moraes to play, but local authorities forbid players from participating in team events. 

Waiting for the final decision, the national team of Ukraine went to the morning training without Kryvtsov, Moraes and Malinowski. The question of the possible participation of Kryvtsov and Moraes in the game remains in the plane of negotiations between UEFA and the local authorities of the canton of Lucerne.
