Dia de Jogo — jornal desportivo28 August 2026 at 14:45

The Champions League draw paired Sporting with Shakhtar Donetsk for the next phase of the competition. The Portuguese team will have to make a difficult trip to Ukraine to face the Ukrainians.

Shakhtar Donetsk is a formidable opponent in European football, having won the UEFA Cup in 2009. This history shows that the Ukrainians have experience in European competitions and will not be an easy opponent.

With this match, Sporting has the opportunity to fight for a position in the top 8 of the Champions League, which would be an important milestone for the Portuguese club in the competition.
