Preparations and other background events
On 13 July 2017 Volodymyr Heninson pointed out to the fact that since 1998 UEFA Super Cup takes place in Monaco which is also a port city and, thus, the "Ukrainian Premier League moves in the stream of the European traditions". As an additional argument why Odesa was chosen as the Ukrainian Super Cup place, the President of UPL stated that football was brought to the Russian Empire through Odesa by the British sailors.
For the first time there will be used the 360-degree video technology for broadcasting of game by channels "Futbol 1" / "Futbol 2" with help of "Limelight, 360discoVR".
