An air raid siren interrupts Shakhtar’s league match against Oleksandria.

Following an air raid warning on Saturday, Shakhtar Donetsk’s Ukrainian Premier League match against Oleksandria in Lviv was postponed for more than an hour before players eventually returned to finish the game.

After Russia’s’special military operation’ invasion of its neighbor in February, Ukraine’s Premier League season began in August, bringing competitive football back to the country.

After Andriy Tsurikov’s initial goal, Shakhtar was behind 1-0 in the first half when the siren sounded and the players were instructed to walk to the locker room.

“The game’s participants moved on to the shelter. Be careful and locate a secure location, Shakhtar advised in a tweet.

After nearly an hour and forty minutes, the game resumed, and Bohdan Mykhailichenko equalized for Shakhtar. Later, Lucas Taylor was dismissed from Shakhtar.

In order to deny Shakhtar all three points, Oleksander Demchenko scored late. Mykhailo Mudryk had made it 2-1. With 20 points after the draw, Shakhtar is now second in the league.

On Wednesday, RB Leipzig visits Shakhtar, which has been hosting Champions League games in Warsaw this year. With six points, it is in third place in Group F of the premier club championship in Europe.
