Shakhtar beat French Brest with a score of 2:0 in the seventh round of the Champions League. The Miners opened the scoring in the 18th minute: Marlon cleared the ball away from his own goal, and Brazilian Kevin robbed Brest captain Brendan Chardonnay, went one on one with goalkeeper Marco Bizot and easily beat him.
The Ukrainian team doubled the score from a penalty awarded in the 37th minute. Georgy Sudakov made a slashing pass to defender Irakli Azarov, who went one-on-one with the goalkeeper, threw the ball past him and, jumping over, fell.
The referee considered this a violation and pointed to the 11-meter mark. Sudakov performed some semblance of a blow with it. Antonina Panenki - 2:0.
At the beginning of the second half, the same Sudakov could have brought the score to a crushing one, but the French goalkeeper parried the shot in the near corner.
Without taking into account the upcoming matches of other teams, Shakhtar after the victory over Brest rose to 27th place in the Champions League standings.
