Club crestSHAKHTAR Donetsk won the last ever UEFA Cup, beating Werder Bremen 2-1 after extra time on Wednesday.  97th minute strike from Rodrigues Jadson won the tie for the Ukranian side.

Shaktar’s victory means that they will go down in history as the last winners of the  tournament.  The UEFA Cup is to be replaced next season by a new competition, the Europa League.
