Shaktar doesn't even play their games at where they normally do, it's been few years but there is war there, so they are playing at Lviv instead, still in Ukraine. I still do not get how they do, because of the war, but they do. One thing to remember is that Shakttar plays bigger than they look, because they have so much to fight for.

Shakhtar Donetsk played their first Europa League qualifying match in Ljubljana, Slovenia, at Stadion Stozice. They will play their home match in this qualifying round at Miejski Stadium in Krakow, Poland. They can't even play in their own stadium. They have no home advantage. If they can't play the same way in the return match, they'll be in trouble. As Tammy Abraham said, they celebrated as if they had already advanced to the next round after the first match of the two-legged tie, and they'll pay the price for that. At least the other players need to believe in themselves like Tammy does and play like the real Beşiktaş. If that happens, the second match will be different.
