GELSENKIRCHEN, Germany (Reuters) – Shakhtar Donetsk bounced back quickly with a 2-1 home win over Switzerland’s Young Boys in a Champions League group stage match on Wednesday.

Young Boys took the lead in the 27th minute when Castriot Imeri fired home from close range.

However, Ukrainian Shakhtar reacted quickly: Alexander Zubkov came on four minutes later, and Georgiy Sudakov put the hosts ahead four minutes before the break in Gelsenkirchen, Germany.

Swiss champions Young Boys are still seeking their first win in the competition, with Shakhtar taking four points from four matches.
