Ukraine Soccer League Set For A Title-Deciding Game

GENEVA (AP) — Two soccer teams exiled from cities in war-battered eastern Ukraine will play each other Sunday in the safer western part of the country with the league title at stake. The showdown between competition leader Shakhtar Donetsk and second-place Dnipro-1 at Arena Lviv can be decisive in a season finishing on schedule in remarkable circumstances during Russia’s war on Ukraine. Shakhtar leads by five points and needs just a draw to secure the title ahead of the last round of games. The soccer season continued with the blessing of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a bid to help keep some normalcy in daily life.
