Confirmed: Shevchenko missed the match with Litex 15.08.2011

The big star of Dinamo (Kiev) Andriy Shevchenko will surely not take part in the first playoff game to enter the UEFA Cup groups against Litex Lovech. Following a review it became clear that the attacker has broken cheekbone, which will be issued by the accounts of the trainer Yuri Syomnin indefinitely.

As is known, the winner of the "Golden Ball" in 2004 was hit very badly in the face in the game against Arsenal (Kyiv) (2-0).

"Sheva has a broken jaw. This week, he will fly to England or Italy, where experts will review it. I can not say when he will be ready for matches. Know only that we will miss the upcoming game against Litex "said Syomnin to the official website of Dynamo.

The match between Litex Lovech and Ukrainian giants is on Thursday from 19.45 hours.
