Kyiv will play against the Turkish giant.
On Wednesday, July 20, Kyiv “Dynamo” in the Polish city of Lodz will play the first match in the framework of the second round of Champions League qualification against the Turkish “Fenerbahce”.
ZN.UA will broadcast the Dynamo match online Fenerbahce.
Dynamo, like all Ukrainian clubs, suffered from the full-scale invasion of Russia in February. The championship was not finished, and Lucescu's team, which was in second place in the table, won a ticket to the qualification of the Champions League.
However, not so many football players left Kyiv, considering the fact that “Dynamo ” lately, the focus has been on Ukrainian football players, and there were not so many legionnaires in the team.
In recent months, “Dynamo” held only charity sparring matches, and the Dynamo team played its last official match in December of last year.
“Fenerbahce” took second place in the last Turkish championship, losing the championship to “Trabzonspor”.< /p>
“Canaries” have a fairly solid and experienced set of football players, and in the current summer transfer window they already managed to sign King from “Watford”, Rossi from the USA, Emre Mora and Brum, but also said goodbye to the star football player Ozil, who never became a leader in Istanbul.
If Mircea Lucescu's team passes their opponent, then in the third round of the non-championship journey they will play the Austrian “Sturm”, and in the event of relegation from “Fenerbahce” they will meet the Czech “Slovak” in the qualification of the Europa League.
