Ukrainians in the Europa League. Eduard Sobol's Dynamo, Shakhtar and Brugge will play in the tournament

After leaving the Europa League Luhansk "Dawn" Ukraine in the 1/16 finals of the tournament will be represented by two clubs that moved there from the Champions League - Dynamo Kyiv and Shakhtar Donetsk.

During the draw, which will take place on December 14, Kyiv will be in the seedless group of teams, and the miners - in the seeded. This means that Mircea Lucescu's team will play the first match of the 1/16 at home, and the boys of Luis Castro - on the road.

Scattering will be blind. But, first, at this stage of the competition, teams that played in the same group will definitely not play each other. Secondly, representatives of one country will be divorced. And, thirdly, Shakhtar will never cross paths with Russian Krasnodar.

We will add that after the group tournament in the Europa League there is only one foreign club left, the colors of which are defended by the football player of the national team of Ukraine - the Belgian "Brugge" Eduard Sobol.

Roman Yaremchuk's Ghent, Yevhen Shakhov's AEK and Yevhen Cheberko's LASK have already finished the fight.
