On Sunday, May 17, the Matchday 29 fixture between Conference League semifinalist Shakhtar Donetsk and Kryvbas Kryvyi Rih experienced an interruption due to security concerns. Reports indicate that an air raid siren was activated during the match.
In the 16th minute of the game, which was held in Kryvyi Rih, the sound of the siren prompted officials to suspend the match. The local team, Kryvbas, was hosting the Ukrainian champions, Shakhtar Donetsk, at the time of the disruption.
The match had initially been scheduled to kick off at 13:00, but the air raid alert delayed the start, with play eventually beginning at 14:40 local time. The game will continue once the threat has been deemed safe.
