Shakhtar goalkeeper Andriy Pyatov played the match against Vorskla for 341 days at the age of 38.
Thus, he entered the top ten oldest football players in the history of the championships of Ukraine, displacing his colleague Vitaliy Reva from it. By the way, at a more “venerable” age, only three goalkeepers played in the UPL – Igor Shukhovtsev, Alexander Shovkovsky and Alexander Goryainov.
