Europa League. Shakhtar started its play-off tournament with a victory in Israel

In the first match of the 1/16 finals, the miners' success was scored by accurate shots by Alan Patrick and Tete.

Rival of Donetsk that finished third in its group of the Champions League, became the Israeli club, which in the group tournament of the Europa League took second place after "Villarreal", ahead of "Sivasspor" and "Karabakh". The fact that Maccabi head coach TA Patrick von Liouven previously headed Shakhtar's club academy gave a special connotation to the game.

In the starting lineup orange-black compared to a match against Kolos in the Premier League there was one change: instead of Konoplyanka, the player of the Israeli national team Solomon came on the field.

Shakhtar had a significant advantage in possession of the ball, but despite spending a lot of time near the home team's penalty area, they made the first shot only in the 23rd minute. The multi-pass combination ended with an attempt to score Moraes, but Tenenbaum managed to form and cope with the shot. But in eight minutes he failed: Marlos and Matvienko brought Alan Patrick to the final blow, and this time the ball from the hands of the goalkeeper "Maccabi" flew into the near corner. 0: 1.

In general, the Pitmen, despite their dominance on the field, did not create anything more significant at the gates of the Israelis in the first half. The hosts could count on something in the attack except in the episode with the fall of Pesic in the penalty area in the fight against Kryvtsov. But the arbitrator with the help of the VAR system determined the absence of violations of the rules by Sergei.       

In the second half, Maccabi players built their attacks more effectively, they even managed to strike a few blows and make Trubin work. As a member of Shakhtar, Solomon was active, but his excessive desire to prove himself in his native land prevented him from acting prudently, and in the end Manora was replaced. Konoplyanka had a good opportunity to score, coming on as a substitute, but Yevhen's shot was pulled by the goalkeeper. However, the Pitmen scored the second goal with the efforts of two other jokers - Fernando and Tete. 0: 2.

As part of Shakhtar, players who were on the list called up for the November training camp of the national team of Ukraine: Kryvtsov, Matvienko (goal pass), Stepanenko, Marlos (yellow card, replaced in the 77th minute), Moraes (replaced by 88) -th minute).
