Report
Donetsk Scythians defeated the Kharkov Atlantes 22-20 in the Ukraine Super Bowl VI after finishing the season with 7 wins and one tie in their eight matches. Khzarkov Atlantes were the only team to take a point off them in the entire season, finishing on 5 wins 2 losses and one tie, with both losses coming against the Scythians. Kharkov Atlantes are named after the Atlantic Ocean, which is in itself named after Atlantis, what some archeologists believe may be the Tin Mining Regions of Ireland and Cornwall, known to the ancient Greeks. It is keeping with other teams in the early years of Ukraine American Football League being named after Ancient Peoples or Cultures, namely the Donetsk Scythians. The name Atlantic Isles is also used instead of the British Isles. [Reference: 2-3].
