FC Dynamo Kyiv have defeated the Norwegian side Stromsgodset in the second friendly at the current training camp in Turkey – 3:0.
This time players, who started the previous game against Olimpija on the bench, were among first eleven. Just like before, the starting lineup performers got more than 45 minutes of game practice.
Dynamo created the first chance 11 minutes into the match. De Pena took the free kick and hit the bat from 33-meter distance! Generally Dynamo attempted to take the lead regularly, but Rusyn, Andriyevskyi, Sukhoruchko and de Pena were a bit unlucky to succeed.
About half an hour into the first half Stromsgodset had a very good opportunity. Mawa attempted from unpromising angle, Boiko parried the shot, then Ikaunieks obtained the ball and tried to send it into the net, but Denys coped with that challenge too.
Eventually, shortly before the break, the White-Blues took the lead. Carlos de Pena unleashed direct shot from the midfield which caught Norwegian side keeper flatfooted.
In the second half our team played windward which complicated things quite significantly. Shaparenko had a chance to increase the lead, but goalkeeper was there for his team. After that Stromsgodset had more opportunities. At first Ikaunieks hit the post. Then Molvadgaard attempted from tight angle, but Bushchan cleared the shot. Still Stromsgodset failed to equalize while Kyivans managed to score again. Mykolenko headed the ball in after cross from the corner flag by Pivaric.
And then, ten minutes before the time, Sydorchuk hit the bottom corner after Dynamo attack and made is 3:0.
