Donetsk "Shakhtar" will play a duel 2 rounds of the group stage of the Champions League with the French "Lyon" with empty stands.

UEFA punished "weavers" with one match without spectators because of riots in the stands and manifestations of racism at the match of the League of Europe 2017/18 with CSKA. In addition, the French will have to pay 100 thousand euros fine.

Note that previously the fans of the "Lyon" almost broke off the duel with the Turkish "Besiktas", which took place two years ago.

A similar situation was with the Dynamo Kyiv in the match of the 1st round of the group stage of the European League 2017/18 against the Serbian Partizan.

The game "Lyon" - "Shakhtar" will start on October 2 at 22:00 Kyiv time. With the full calendar of Donetsk in the most prestigious club tournament in Europe you can see HERE.
