If we summarize this game briefly, then in both the literal and figurative sense the players of "Borysfen" covered their point with their own bodies. In Lutsk they staged a real Italian "catenaccio" and did not allow the Lutsk players to hit their own goal even once.

Kyiv's "Dynamo" and Donetsk's "Shakhtar" took their planned three points in the matches of the 8th round. Admittedly, the victories of the Kyivans over Donetsk's "Metalurh" and the miners over the capital's "Arsenal" cannot be called easy.

24 medals – such a phenomenal result for Ukrainian athletes after five days of the Paralympics taking place in Greece.

The Italian football team "Roma" was awarded a technical defeat with a score of 0:3 in the first-round Champions League match against Kyiv's "Dynamo".

Three more representatives of the elite division failed to reach the quarterfinals of the Ukrainian Cup. The Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia "Metalurhs", as well as Mariupol's "Illichivets", failed to get past the round of 16.

In the World Cup qualifying match between the national teams of Kazakhstan and Ukraine, the Ukrainians snatched victory in the last minute. The final score of the match was 2:1 in favor of Oleh Blokhin's charges.

After a one-year break caused by the ban on tobacco advertising in Belgium, auto races in the Formula 1 class returned to one of the oldest racetracks, located near the Belgian town of Spa. The return turned out to be extremely spectacular and exciting. From the first turn, the track offered struggle and intrigue.
