UEFA counts Ukrainians as technical defeat in Conference League matches

The European Football Union (UEFA) has counted two technical defeats with a score of 0:3 for SC Dnipro-1 in the second qualifying round of the Conference League against Hungarian side Academy Puskás. Thus, the organization reacted to the fact that the Ukrainian team withdrew from the new draw of the Ukrainian Premier League (UPL).

This is stated on the official UEFA website. The decision of the control and disciplinary committee means that the Dnipro team finished the season and did not bring the country a single point to the table of coefficients. OBOZ.UA has recently analyzed that the situation in this rating for Ukraine is close to catastrophic.

Thus, Shakhtar and Dynamo will play in the Champions League, Kryvbas in the Europa League and Zhytomyr's Polissya in the Conference League. "The Shakhtar have qualified directly for the main draw, while all the others will have to participate in the qualifiers of their respective tournaments.

As for the UPL, the Ukrainian Football Association (UAF) decided that the winner of the transitional tournament, which will include Minai, Metalist-1925, Livyi Bereh and Epicenter, will play instead of the club from Dnipro.

As OBOZ.UA previously reported, Dynamo Kyiv announced a demarche on the eve of the Champions League qualifying round match with Serbian Partizan.
