Shakhtar Donetsk’s 2-0 victory over Epicenter was more than just another win for the miners; it marked a significant milestone in the club’s history.

According to the official Ukrainian Premier League website, this match represented Shakhtar’s 500th clean sheet since the inception of independent Ukrainian football. Their first clean sheet came on March 18, 1992, against Vinnytsia’s Nyva, a game they won 5-0. For context, last season alone, Shakhtar kept 17 clean sheets, accounting for more than half of their matches in the UPL.

Additionally, the win against Epicenter extended Shakhtar’s unbeaten streak in away matches to 24 games, comprising 16 victories and 8 draws.
