Shakhtar Donetsk winger Tyson shared his expectations from the team's performance in the Europa League, where it made it through after a draw with Inter Milan in the Champions League group stage final round match.

" We made it to the semi-finals last season. Of course, it's a shame to fly one step before the final.. So it's time to play the final.

We have to play as we do now, take all matches seriously and this applies not only to the Europa League. Congratulations to everyone on getting into the Europa League "

In the 1/16 finals of the Europa League, Ukraine will also be represented by Dynamo Kiev, which made its way into the tournament from third place in its Champions League group after defeating Ferencvaros.

The draw for the 1/16 finals of the Europa League will take place on 14 December. Its beginning is at 14:00.

Prior to the draw, teams will be divided into seeded (12 group winners and the four highest-ranked teams eliminated from the Champions League) and unseeded (12 runners-up and four other teams eliminated from the Champions League). Seeded teams play return matches at home.

In the 1/16 finals, clubs from the same country or those that met in the same group of the Europa League cannot play against each other.
