The head of the legal service of the Shakhtar Andrey Kharitonchuk commented on the situation around the match with Veres.

Recall that Veres asked to transfer the match against Shakhtar on another date, citing the poisoning of the players of the basics. The match was not transferred, and the players Veresa twice made their way to Kharkiv. In addition, on the field in the match with the Miner came six of the alleged poisoned players.

"The story of the poisoning of Verus football players seems to us very illogical and untrue," Shakhtar's lawyer Andrei Kharitonchuk told Football Channel 1.

"There are many questions:.

- why the players who were unhealthy suddenly went to the game and spent the whole match?.

- why Veres, realizing that the Premier League does not see force majeure, decided not to play the game and go to Vinniki?.

- What are the benefits of moving the leadership of Veres, that the club was in advance agreed with the technical defeat? This is at least unsporting.

- Why did Veres blackmail in correspondence with Shakhtar by turning the ending of the championship into legal wars?.

There are a lot of ambiguities in this story.

Therefore, we sent a statement to the FFU Ethics and Fair Play Committee with a request to conduct a detailed investigation of the mysterious poisoning.

We know what happened, but we do not know why, what motivated them. Communicating with football players, coaches, doctors and managers, it will be possible to establish the truth, who gave such orders. If the motive - some benefit, and there will be corruption or manipulation of the result of the match, the committee will evaluate, "- added the lawyer.
