You're reading: Ukraine goalie crisis

Ukraine and Spartak Moscow stopper Andriy Dykan could miss Euro 2012 after sustaining a serious facial injury in a game on March 31.

The Yellow-Blues have already lost Shakhtar Donetsk goalkeeper Oleksandr Rybka for the tournament after he was suspended for doping.

The loss of the two goalkeepers leaves Ukraine thin in that position. Dynamo Kyiv veteran Oleksandr Shovkovsky is likely to start, with Shakhtar’s Andriy Pyatov in reserve.
